Okay, I have stopped and took a long, hard look at my life. I know what I want to do and I have made a list of short-term goals to help get me there. They are very simple goals, but I need to start somewhere. I will check off each goal that I complete, and hopefully I will accomplish many, many things this way. The bottom line – I want to be happy. Sitting here in this rut is not getting me anywhere. Not that time-offs aren’t good, but that’s no excuse for not being productive.
My convenient list of short-term goals is only a start, so I expect to progress to long-term goals after a while. Since I know what I want and have an idea of how to get it, then I should be on the right track, correct? I’d say so. Honestly, I wish I could snap my fingers and be where I wanna be. Going one step at a time should keep me focused and build appreciation, though. Let’s just hope that this process is a comfortable and fulfilling one. I mean, I don’t expect to not work hard, but I don’t want to be pushed past my limits and constantly fail. I need not fall into another depression or a trauma-induced episode. I expect everything to flow as smoothly as possible, and I want my mind to be at ease knowing that I can do this.
With this lovely bit of time-off, I shall accomplish all (or at least most) of what I wish to accomplish. So my hobbies, therapies, meditation, etc. should keep me busy and on track. Wish me luck.
