Stagnant...

I sit here in the darkness of my living room with only the light of my
iPhone to hold my eyes as I type these words. Slipping into a
suspended sense of reality I am once again caught in my own self-doubt
and I do nothing but write about it. So many things I can achieve
await me outside of my own front door yet I am too frightened of
failure to pursue them. Is this paralytic stance on my part really
from fear or just complete laziness? Only the latter could be true,
for I have been more than well-equipped to adapt in nearly every life
experience brought my way. So if laziness is the prime factor of my
stagnant destiny, then there must be a method of motivation out there
to get me inspired to do SOMETHING for once in my life!

I am my own worst enemy and this is so apparent after once again
resisting the urge to use my credit card for another random online
purchase. Not only am I unwilling to go after my dreams, but I am
allowing temptation to lure my own idle mind into potential trouble.

I have already made up my mind that tomorrow will be the new start to
a dedicated workout routine of weightlifting and running throughout
the week. I just have to maintain the drive to stay committed to this
new way of life for myself so that in turn everything else will fall
into place. I can either be my own best hero or worst enemy, and it is
time that I chose the proper side if I am to be prosperous at all in
this lifetime.

Looking at your site I see a lot of potential.

Be strong and be positive - with your writing skills and 'techy' nature you should start looking for work talking about what you love - then you will be doing something worthwhile.

This blog is teastiment to your abilities, now go and put them to good use!

And whatever you do in life, always look on the bright side.

Wow! Thanks so much James for the words of encouragement! I really appreciate them especially at this time in my life.

I will be attending college for the first time at ECPI to earn my Associates degree in Wireless Communications and am looking forward to it immensely.
