So sure of ourself one minute, so afraid the next

We can only be or have one or the other, not both

 

When we set a big goal and prepare for it for several years, something obvious happens. Time passes.

And the closer we get the reality gradually amplifies.

To a fever pitch sometimes.

Ranging from feelings of separation (like from a sudden death) anxiety to unbelievable excitement for the next greatest adventure in life.

Not uncommon to change your mind several times in a single day. And each decision seems final, until it doesn’t again.

It feels like insanity sometimes.

So sure of ourself one minute, so afraid the next.

Why?

Decision decisions…

The most difficult thing is the decision to act, the rest is merely tenacity. – Amelia Earhart

The reward for making a decision is in the making of it.

Regret is a poor reward for choosing to not decide.

Especially when the choices are compelling and exciting (and fearful).

The paperwork of life is relative

Individual dorm room window air conditioning units
Pretty organized to keep each room cooled

 

Dozens of window units or one large central air conditioner on the roof?

These are among the literally overwhelming number of decisions a large scale operation has to make.

It’s the same for a single family residential unit too. Or a small business owner.

The paperwork of life is relative, and always overwhelming if not decently organized.

Without this finely tuned filter, we waffle, suffer, and rob ourselves

On the road again – Amway Grand Plaza Hotel – travel can complicate life if we are disorganized.

 

We are presented with challenges our whole life. How we manage them is up to us.

We know this.

The glorious release – from the prison that unexpected change shackles us to – is in creating processes for creatively thinking about how to get through the one that just hit us.

Being organized helps us develop a filter for deciding which way to go moving forward – what to change and what to never change.

Without this decently tuned filter, we waffle, suffer, and rob ourselves of daily living in the moment – joy.

It’s expensive either way

Orlando is becoming famous for something else – digital economies (many supported by WordPress)

 

Fingers crossed that bravery, focus, and decisiveness will wash over fear today at the monthly Orlando WordPress meetup.

There’s a high cost to moving forward in an excellent way.

There’s a high cost for sitting on the fence and not doing much of anything.

It’s expensive either way.
