I’m officially designating March as the month of new beginnings. It’s time to reset life a little. Take a look at what you’re doing, what you intended to do and what you’re going to do.
Are you following your plan? Are you living everyday the way you intended? Sometimes it feels like the drudgery of day to day life can get us so worked up we forget to step back and reassess the big picture.
How’s your health? How’s your family? Are there things you could be doing better? Are there things you’re not doing that you’d like to?
Given the events of last week, I’ve found myself in this cycle of re-assessment. I’m finding that there are things about my life I WISH I could change. Have I done anything to make that happen? Somewhat but not that satisfies me.
My Dad always seemed to be pushing. He was always looking to grab the brass ring he didn’t have or achieve the next level of success. He was an EXTREMELY motivated man but on top of that he was a do-er. He knew how to make it happen or at least wasn’t afraid of trying.
If there’s one thing that I’ve come to realize recently is that I inherited his motivation but not his risk taking skills but I’m finding that I’m not completely satisified with what I’ve achieved and that part of it is that I’m not doing things that, while are considered risky, also produce great reward.
I’m still in discovery mode so as I figure out what to do about this revelation and it may take time but it’s a necessary step. I need to find my way for me and for my family.
