I can’t believe the years just flew by like that because my 101 Things To Do List in 1001 Days still has a lot of uncrossed items. AND, many of them are EASY items. I could probably read one of those books in a day so long as they’re not boring, dry, or hard to read as that would put me right to sleep. Many of the other things would just require me shelling out many shiny pennies that I haven’t figured into my budget yet. The thing is, it’s my fault. I could have fit them all in but I just didn’t actively put forth the effort to get these items crossed off. Except for the lose weight part … haven’t figured that one out yet. In fact, I might’ve take a couple steps in the other direction. But I still have 6 months to get everything done. So we’ll see.
Oh yeah, on another note, in generalities, don’t be afraid to pay your dues in fear that you might be wasting your time because you think there’s an easier way other than paying your dues. Paying your dues is a fact of life, but it is also a necessity. Things always don’t come freely. And even if they did, you wouldn’t be ready for them or you wouldn’t be deserving of them anyways.
In the mean time, as you pay your dues, go ahead and look for an easier shortcut. And when you find that shortcut, great! At least you have experience to back you up as you go for it. But if you never find that magical easy way in, at least you have been paying your dues and that should pay off any time now too. But of course, work smarter, not harder. Don’t do something over and over in the same fashion in hopes that it will eventually work. Continuously try different methods if other methods are producing no results. Now… go take over the world.
