I've Been On Hiatus!

Sometimes fitting in the blog time gets difficult, which is why I've been gone for over a month...

And it's fantastic timing because I've been reassessing my goals and where I am in relation to them. Answer: FAR. But that's ok because the other thing I've been discovering is that I don't need to run towards the finish line. It's not how fast you get there, after all, it's what you learned on the journey there.

And my journey is definitely one of ups and downs. Like most other people in search of happiness, I'm completely self-handicapping. This notion is when you purposefully sabotage yourself so that you get exactly what you expect... there's no variability. I'm guilty of looking for excuses to keep myself from venturing out: it's a fat day, I'm too tired, I don't know if I'll like being around __ for more than ten minutes. We all do it.

There are three weeks of classes left. I'm going to get organized, motivated, and in three weeks I'm going to be prepared to be living so far out of my comfort zone, I'm going to forget what it feels like to hide in it.
