A Morning of Clarity

Sometimes all you need, what you need, is a morning of clarity.

Woke up this morning, and didn’t have to get ready for work.  I didn’t rush, skip breakfast, fight traffic, or put on a tie just to impress, I threw on some shorts, and as a result, I see more clearly what’s important to me.

We spend so much time and energy making preparations  making sure we impress people, some who will never be impressed, or just to make a little extra money, and in the end our quality of life will be reduced, just for what, a extra little bit of money in our pockets? The hope that we’ll impress somebody, or gain favor with somebody, who we shouldn’t be spending so much energy on to begin with?

We can’t continue this way.  Our health is failing, our relationships are failing, we care less and less about the important things in our lives because our lives are being taken over by our need to succeed at something that we don’t really care about!

Where’s our passion?

If we succeed at something that we don’t love, that we don’t care about, is it really success?

It’s time to make some BIG changes, starting now.  We’ve wasted too much time already.

It’s easy to work on the thing that seems to have a plan, a path, but that’s the deception.  It’s their plan, and their path.  It’s not necessarily your own.  You’ll be what they want you to be, and nothing more.  And, when you are something more, something different, they’ll punish you, they’ll shame you into being what they need.

That’s not how life should be.

Maybe things feel empty because our associations are based on relationships that don’t mean very much because they’re based in work that we don’t care very much about?  It’s not personally sustainable.

Wow.

It’s time for a change.  No, wait, I’ve said that before.  The change is now.

There is something bigger, there are bigger expectations that we’re not living up to.  There’s a life to live, and we need to be living it starting now.
