Blogging

     Didn't blog last week and its not that I didn't write a couple blogs, because I did. More so its that they weren't appropriate for anyone to read. It did feel good to write all those thoughts down , a good way to vent without any backlash or hurting anyone's feelings. But in the end no posted blog.

    Trying to be better about my blogging , especially the quality of content. What sounds awesome and makes perfect sense to me , in my head at least , hits the page and it reads like I'm crazy or angry. In the beginning I really thought this blogging requirement sucked but have since leaned to like it.

     What makes a good blog ?  Or better , What makes a great blog?

In the moment

    Is anyone ever in the moment anymore? I watch people run around taking pictures just to post them on a social media. Always on their mobile leashes never appreciating being here and now. Not present. Oddly enough I'm doing that while I write this post  but it was starting to bother me. Being in group of people yet still alone. Can anyone else relate?

Reflection

     At first I was a little disappointed with my year but have since reflected on my accomplishments more and my failures less. Although I do not see them as actual failures but as learning experiences. Best way to learn, for me, is to do or fail trying. I do prefer to learn from others mistakes but sometimes that's not an option.  

    Will I ever live up to my expectations of myself? Every hurdle I encounter doesn't necessarily stop or slow my progression, it does alter my direction. As I evolve I realize it's more about the path you've left behind                     than the place you end up. Getting to the top, turning around and seeing a trial of devastation that's left behind is not who I am or want to be.  The point I am seeing as I write this is , I am taking longer to get to where I see myself being at as little cost to others as possible. Is it the right way to be or should I leave a wake of turmoil in a race to get there?

Perspective

   This year has been good so far. A couple speed bumps slowed me down a little and a pothole sent me for repairs. Nothing major but it did disrupt my flow and up until then I was on track. Numbers were good (except for RAK).  I will fail on my final numbers, I'm am disappointed with that, but I don't  consider the year failed. It was a little harder than I expected it to be.  Maybe I was a little naïve to think this was going to be easy.  

•     Now how do I make next year better not just for me but more importantly for the team? I heard a few good ideas at Saturdays meeting hopefully we start now and test them,  its never too late to finish strong.    

Why

Why if you can see value in actions is it so hard to follow thru. The value all of our requirements is like a flashing billboard to me yet I struggle with doing some of them. Also the routine I started the year with is gone. It was not that hard to get into it or maintain but once I got out of it , I struggle to regain it. Why? Should I restructure it ? It worked before so it should work again. My struggles right now are obviously all mental.

Motivation

     Haven't blogged for a while , no reason other than lazy I guess. My motivation was at a low for almost everything. Sifu Brinkers pep talk in Fridays class has hopefully changed that for good.

     Why is motivation a constant struggle for me ?

Blogging

          I haven't blogged in two weeks. Mostly because I've been feeling down about the massive amount that I have fallen in behind in completing my requirements. So not blogging made sense ? Fall more behind ! After a couple of emails and a meeting with Sifu Brinker  I am back on track , hopefully to stay on track.
   
     Wish I had more uplifting , encouraging and insightful words to write when I blog but I do not. I believe they will come , they just aren't here yet.
