Next Steps...


Life seems to have a timeline... well society has given life a timeline, one some of us diligently follow.
Let's just say my timeline hasn't exactly been kosher. I tend to do things on my time & when I feel like it. When it feels right, I do it. When it doesn't, I stop.
Seems alright, right?... welllll, let's just say it doesn't always work. Doing what I want, when I want, with no real plan, doesn't always pan out the way I would have wanted. (Crazy right! lol)

Reality is, all things in life has levels, stepping stones, next steps, stages... As it should (in my opinion at least). If you find yourself in something stagnant, that has remained unchanged in years, that should be worrisome to some extent, ESPECIALLY at a young age. Also, when you find yourself never leaving level 1 of everything or anything, that too is worrisome.

Not to say you should follow the levels, stepping stones, next steps, & stages others have set... BUT you should set some for yourself. You should always start something with a vision of where you want it to go from there. I think we've all become a bit complacent with going with the flow and/or being comfortable with uncomfortable, that we stopped setting stable every day goals.

By, WE... I mean me.

I'm never complacent, and never quite comfortable with uncomfortable. BUT, all I've been doing is going with the flow, to the point I'm not sure where the current has taken me.

I finally took a hold of the paddle... you would think it be to direct the boat where I want it to go... but, no. It's simply to hold the paddle and stand still until I decide what these next steps should be. I've learned that you truly do need to decide what's next in all situations... no matter how scary that next step may be, it has to be taken eventually. Even if that means changing everything you've ever known.

It's time for new stages in my life...
