What I've recognized in the last few weeks since embarking on this "new years resolution" if you will, is that I have become complacent and comfortable with a number of different things in my life. Right now I am attempting to make positive and proactive choices that throw me out of this comfort zone. Change is not easy for me and most of the time is done with me kicking and screaming but now I am pushing myself so that I can live the life that I imagine is possible.
This is very scary for me nonetheless. I am not fearless by nature, though at times I have exhibited it in my life. I've entered a time in my life that requires me to be courageous despite my fears. As Bruce said I'm climbing my "Everest". I am ascending towards my peak, this is my journey and I can choose to be immobilized by it or move forward in spite of it.
In many area's in my life I have allowed myself to stay in a holding pattern which has been in a way taking care of me. My preoccupation has made me busy with worry and excessive work which has been my excuse for not making any changes.
NO MORE excuses! I can no longer deny that I am squandering my time, nobody else. I am facing my fears today and I choose courage and not fear, life and not regret. I face an upward battle with myself and I'm finally ready to fight this fight. I guess you can say I've followed the yellow brick road and finally reached my Oz.
