I was going to post this yesterday but I got a call from a contract that sent me down to Mobile Al. at 4:00 am....so I decided to get what sleep I could instead.....
Here it goes....
I realized over the last few weeks that the only person that was keeping myself from doing what I wanted was myself. I realized that I had been sitting in my comfort/safety zone (cocoon if you will) waiting for life to happen. I was trading my future happiness for safety. It scares me to death, but I realize that if my life is going to be what I want and if I'm truly going to give myself a chance to be happy, I have to leave my cocoon. So over the next few weeks I'm going to making changes to my life, some small and some larger. I'm going to starting asking "why not?" instead of "why?". I have been forcing myself to go out and do things. I'm going to start doing things because I want to or they seem like fun rather than being completely logical.
I'm going to start living...instead if sitting around like I've already given up on life. I'm picking myself up my the scruff of the neck and throwing myself out of my comfort zone! The first action is a small one but something I've been doing the "why" instead "why not" question for years and talking myself out of it over and over again. Tomorrow I'm going to start flying lessons, I am going to get my pilots license! Wish me luck!
