advice from a crazy person: 2010-02-03
as i lay in my sick-bed, strangely lonely, nauseous from the antibiotics, and 2+ days with little to no food, i found myself thinking. i really only share my experiences nowadays when i am horribly ill, or otherwise emotionally compromised. because there is a lack of things of note to report, and i am loathe to scratch and pick at the banal details of life as a cashier in an effort to dribble words off my chin, just to get the handi-wipe treatment.
this is a symptom of a lack of momentum.
so i had a thought.
and i decided to share it:
-make a list of all the things you've ever said or dreamed of doing.
-check off the ones you've done, and reflect on what you gained from the experience.
-for the things you have not done, write down the reasons you have not done them.
-ask yourself if these things preventing you from the Thing You Want To Do are insurmountable.
-ask yourself why.
-morality? law? funding? previous commitments? laziness? hesitation? doubt? fear? etc.
-realize that excluding the suffering or careless treatment of others in your journey, that you can do anything.
-if the things preventing your from achieving the Thing You Want To Do can be surpassed (and they can)...
DO WHAT IT TAKES TO MOVE THEM OUT OF YOUR WAY
AND DO IT
living a life of hesitation only wastes time, and reaps regret.
