Procrastination

I have been sitting here deciding what new template I want to use for this blog rather than actually writing down what's on my mind. Procrastination... The title of today's rant... This seems to be the theme of most in their daily lives and has been part of mine as of late. I have been putting off what needs to happen and what I should be doing. Instead, I have been living the same life as it is what is most comfortable for me and it's what I know. It's the easy route. I need to take the road less traveled and I want to break out of the chains I entangled myself with that keep me grounded to this place. In speaking with my boyfriend today I realized that I am the only one who can seize this moment and make change for myself. I cannot wait for others to make it happen for me and I cannot continue to talk about all the things I want to do with my life. Life cannot be planned, as the saying goes, "Life is what happens when you're busy making plans". You're alive so go out and do something!! My motto has always been that you only get one shot at life so you better live it to the fullest and make the most out of every day you are blessed to have. I lost sight of this for quite some time. I got caught up in the partying, drinking and socializing. It got me nowhere and brought nothing enriching to my life. Alright, so maybe it was fun at the time, but in the long run it proved to get me overweight, alone and deeper into debt from overspending on going out. Today I am at a point in my life where I can honestly say that I am happy. I am truly blessed to have the people that I have in my life right now. They surround me with positive energy and give me the support I need to continue believing that I can live each day to the fullest.

"Every worthwhile accomplishment, big or little, has its stages of drudgery and triumph; a beginning, a struggle and a victory." Ghandi
Alright, I'm putting myself on the hook here people so let it be known that I am going to make some changes in my life.... and I have already begun. I want to no longer be apart of the masses and live in this false reality of what could be or what might happen. I'm going to write in this journal and to keep myself honest. More to come... Like Bob Dylan said... I feel a change comin' on!... and I like it!
