2nd Quarter Review and What I’m Planning

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

This post was written 2 months ago and have been busy doing other things. It is funny, though, once you write something down, things start to happen and relatively quickly.

The second quarter has come and past, I’m already into the discovery of my next step in my life. I’m not going to explain what did and didn’t happen, but I’m to say that it was a hard, challenging, and a worthwhile quarter.

For the most part, my story isn’t as different from the next person, but as I talk to more people and get their take on what I’m doing, I am seeing that I’m taking hold of my life, even with being trap in Corporate America. I have learn that I’m my worst enemy and my biggest cheerleader. I have to learn the difference between being motivated by others and motivated by myself. If one is constantly motivated by others, than their life is not theirs, they are being push in the wind, because the action is controlled by reaction.

“It is easy to be motivated by somebody not believing in you; the hard part is to be motivated when no one is around…“

1st Quarter of 2009 Review

DSC_0205

We have already gone through 3 months of 2009. I have done tons of things that have helped me have a great start to the year and also others that I still need to work on.

The Good

Waking up early: I started to wake up early, especially during the work-week at 4:30 a.m. I was trying to get up at 4 a.m., but changed my workout schedule and didn’t feel like going to sleep even earlier. So, far now, 4:30 is the time I rise or snooze till 4:50, and I wake up to at least do my 45 minutes of writing. What I need to do for the next quarter is work myself down to 4:20 and spring up out of bed, so I will be able to workout if need be and then write after wards. This will free up more time in the afternoon for anything, unplanned or planned.
