I feel like a cross between crap and nothing at all today. I don't want to get caught in the never-ending cycle of "almost made it". Have you ever heard people talk about someone who has passed on? They are quick to say "Oh Johnny was so smart. He could do anything. He was just ahead of his time. If he would have only done_______ or studied ______ he would have been rich." Sadly, I feel like that's the way my life is going. I know my brain is sharp. I have a great memory, awesome eye for direction and the ability to clearly convey my thoughts without wavering. My potential is infinite. But I keep getting stuck in a "work rut". Why? Because I am addicted to the freakin' paycheck!! That small amount of money that is dangled in front of me every few weeks reeling me in further and further. In exchange for the facade of financial security (which is always just enough to get by and maybe save a little) we give up our whole damn day to work and work and work to make someone else rich. Then when we come home we are too tired to work on a plan to break the cycle; so we go at it again. We're like pathetic rodents on a wheel going nowhere fast. I could see if I got some satisfaction from this cycle, but when I do it is minimal.
Something has to give. I say this every few years. But I know that I am not getting any younger and I need to make a move quickly, else I be stuck in a mediocre situation....completely out of the scope of my destiny.
