Day 102: Get Your Game Face On

Sometimes life likes to play hardball, or at least it feels that way, and when it plays dirty and throws me a curve ball I say back, “I’ve got my eye on you. You haven’t got me yet.” So when he taunts me with a “Saaa-wing batter batter batter….Saaa-wing!”, I smile because you can bet that I am going to hit that ball right out of the park so far he won’t know what happened. Taunt ME? You must not know who you are dealing with. I am watching you life, and the moment you let your guard down I’m coming in with a gale force wind. You wanna play hardball? I say game on…bring it. I’m coming for you.
So here I am, I’ve got my game face on and I am tackling one of the biggest obstacles I have ever encountered…finances. It feels like it has haunted me my whole life. Some days are more intense than others, and it scares me that I have let it run me for so long. To tell you the truth, I have had enough. I guess that marks the fork in the road for change to take place too. I don’t have a clear cut answer for anything or how to accomplish my goal of “getting out”, and most days I feel like a lumberjack just swinging away, hacking at whatever stands in my way. Lately though, I have been getting uber laser focused and have started tackling my books. Must start somewhere!  I finally sat down yesterday on my room floor and just laid it all out in front of me and just plugged away at it like it was nobody’s business, and I was surprised that after only a few hours I was nearly half done my task. Why I have waited months to do this, God only knows. But it seems the more I get it done, the less stress and anxiety I feel around it. My lesson of the month…just do it!
Persistent action + patience + dedicated focus = JOB DONE! J
