Fear is the mind killer. Action is the answer.
In the past, I have tried to change in big steps, and failed.
This is because no one changes in big steps, at least not on purpose.
So instead, I'm changing in little steps. I'm convinced the real route to change is to make the same small decision repeatedly. In essence, I'm brainwashing myself.
Which is why, once again, my kitchen is pretty shiny.
There's a long and awkward explanation for why this is important... mostly it has to do with remembering a part of who I am, and how that part relates to other people. Ironically, that was tipped off by a random note on Facebook. But it dawns on me that I really do want to be the best me I can, and that a good portion of that means getting over myself. Again. And again. And then a few more times.
So, the dishes are done and the stove is clean. I really need to get back into the habit of getting up early in the morning again. I get more done, even if it feels like hell for the first month or so.
Powers, it's gonna rock so hard when I get where I'm going.

I have a pretty good idea.
