Plate Spinning and Other Circus Tricks

If you don't like where you are, you have to think about what you can do differently, and then actually, you know, do it.

I need to work on generally being more productive. Work more, sleep less. Jay-z didn't become Jay-z because he liked sleep (or P. Diddy, or Timbaland. I don't know why rappers come to mind first but it is what it is.)

Trying to get off of your parents' tab so you no longer have to convince yourself that you're an investment--  Juggling real life responsibilities and dream chasing seems to slow down the progress of the latter.  You begin to wonder if you'll ever, ever get there.

We are a generation of instant gratification. We're impulsive. We want everything how we want it and when we want it, which is our way and NOW. We are impatient. I am impatient.

You may be far and away from where you want to be, but every little step is at least a step forward. Before you know it, you'll be miles away form where you started.
