I was so tired of it. My schedule was extremely demanding. I woke up at 3:50am and didn’t get to bed until after 10:00pm. I felt annoyed and exhausted, but worst of all I felt bored.My whole life I had fought that feeling, the dry, stale, emptiness of being completely bored with something. As I stared at the screen, I wondered, “Why am I doing this?”I had had enough. Right there in that moment. I made a decision that would change everything. It would be the most important decision I’d ever made in my entire life. I decided to stay right there and keep going.

EXCELLENT POST!!!!! I think you’re hitting your stride Mr. G!!! Bravo!
Thanks Ms. Cibyl. I am lucky to have lots of support and an excellent writing coach.
I love your perspective on this. The act of change was to not do something. Running away from out most arduous challenges is often an obstacle to transformation. Sometimes we have to do the thing that is hardest for us to do.
