Given my last post, it is fitting that I have been LAZY for the past....X number of months and not read or posted as consistently as I originally intended. However, I refuse to bow to my outer-self; that lazy, self-centered, whiny, inconsistent, perfectionist spirit that attempts to rule my life. As totally tempting as it is for me to say, "well I've really messed this up, might as well give up right now since it can't be perfect"...I WILL NOT. I refuse to bow to that ridiculous perfectionism. How far am I behind? Not really sure. And I'm not going to go back and try to figure out where I need to be and by when or any of that. I am simply going to start reading and posting and later, when I'm being consistent again, I will review where I am and where I need to be.
You will notice that this post is filled with a lot of I and me. Isn't that typical? The further we get from our true, core, God-directed selves, the more focus is in the wrong place.
Well here you have it folks, and I hope that this might be encouraging for those of you like me; whose perfectionist spirit, the "Resistance" as Steven Pressfield calls it, tends to stop us in our tracks. I've got news for that part of me. SHUT UP.
Nice
