First blog entry of many to come. This will contain the thought of a young, fairly creative, Madison resident. Now that the formalities are out of the way….
So many things are expected to be laid out in your life. I have been finding this out more and more as I approach my mid 20’s and I tend to disagree with most of what the upper echelon of my present micro society wants me to do. They say ‘Plan for the future, get your game plan, then execute it to a T’. Hmmm now that seems like a great idea on the surface….doesn’t it?
I would beg the contrary, life is anything but planned, folks who have these plans are the same ones who claim that ‘life isn’t fair’, who tout that ‘this wasn’t supposed to happen’, when in fact all that is and isn’t fair and all that was and wasn’t supposed to happen are in fact aspects of a life. Life is up, life is down, without the down’s you wouldn’t realize the up’s. It is all in how you handle situations on the fly, how well you can deal with the down times and how well you can take advantage of the best of times. All this being said, it really comes down to how you want your life to go, and realizing that you have that choice is the first step in commanding your life.
These things seem to be obvious, I know that I have heard these ideas many times in my life, but it is not until you know that they are true that you truly benefit from those lessons. From there nothing can stop you, and it is kind of a funny thing to know.
Go ahead and marinate on that.
