Well I think it’s about time now… to start writing that is.
I’m a firm believer in the philosophy that one cannot make a significant change in his or her life without being ready to make the change. Of course that seems pretty logical, but it is amazing how many people try to force a change upon themselves when they are just not prepared to make it. Case in point: the myriad weight loss programs and diets being preached from every dimension. Most people who go on these “programs” do not lose weight in the long run, they actually gain more. Most who go on these programs are just not prepared to make the change in their lives. They may really want to change, even desperately, but are not capable of doing it permanently – yet.
I’ve felt this “readiness” a few times in my life, and made some pretty significant changes. I’ve also tried to force changes that I wasn’t ready for and failed miserably. I know that I suck as a writer, but feel that the time is right for me to start putting down more words. Maybe I can get better through practice. I think this blog will be a good place for most of my writing.
