Time Keeps On Slippin', Slippin'
I created a vision board back in 2008. On it, I placed all the major goals I wanted to achieve. By year's end, I hadn't accomplished ANY of 'em. Not one. So, I changed the year to 2009. By year's end, I had completed only one---my screenplay, Miss Juanita. So, I changed the year to 2010. By year's end, I had completed only one---my novel, The Genesis & Revelations Of River M. Nile. Now, I've changed the year to 2011. Since 2008 I've wanted to visit eight, particular families at their homes. I wanted to simply step into their home lives for a weekend or so. Well, as I look at my vision board now, I realize that within the three years I've desired to visit these families, three of the families are no longer. Divorce and/or separation split them up. What this means to me is that if I had truly made it a priority to visit with these families back in 2008, I would've been able to experience them when they were whole. Now, because I allowed procrastination to get the better of me, I can't visit them the way they were. Lesson learned: time waits for no one. And, when I say/feel that I want to do something, I MUST do it! Admittedly, it's hard to break old habits. But, if I ever expect to live my highest/best life, I had better DO so! NOW! Not tomorrow. Not next week. Not next month. NOW! RIGHT NOW!
