I just wrote a letter to a friend of mine who says she\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s tired, and can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t find the time to do what she wants to do. Here\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a little bit of my response:<\/p>\n
There\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s this thing about time; we never have enough. Sometimes there may be enough, but we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re not in the mood to use it wisely, or maybe we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re just tired and don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t feel like it. We all go through that; even me. But if we want to progress, move forward so to speak, we must attempt to do at least a little bit here and there, select what\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s important enough to devote time to, and try to get to the rest when we have a chance.<\/p>\n I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m traveling, write my two newsletters and write in my blog. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m still working on my detective story, need to start another book with this friend of mine, am still writing a second story with another friend of mine, purchased another domain name for another website I want to start up, am reading two books, and have tons of email and online networking I still need to do.<\/p>\n Yeah, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m tired; but I do my bit, lay down and rest, read, come back and do my bit,\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 etc. Eyes on the prize, so to speak. I want to be rich and successful; I want to keep in touch with my friends; I want to keep in touch with people who may end up helping me get national business of some sort, and help them as much as possible also. Just have to have something you want at the end of the journey, and that helps you to spark yourself in some way.<\/font><\/p>\n We all do get tired from time to time. But if we fall into the trap of giving in to that tiredness, which is usually more mental than physical, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s like the concept of the dark side of the force taking control of your life. That\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a fate I never want to say I gave in to. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" (originally published May 9th, 2005) I just wrote a letter to a friend of mine who says she\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s tired, and can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t find the time to do what she wants to do.
