throwing change to see what happens.

A post for posting Sake.

Hopefully, any readers at this point have started to have those defining moments that help toward self development. The only thing that has happened to me the last few days was the realization that I needed to stop drinking so I could dry out before my classes started again. For me it is easy to fall into the pattern of drinking a few more then is probably necessary, my work sucks and kinda requires that I am hung over just so I do not get angry when I am told to stop talking. When I at my peak I try to point out things in people that they seem to want to fix.

This is something worth discussing, people saying that they want to fix something but never really looking at when they do it. For an example, someone saying that they would like to be more positive. Negative statements have been ingrained into them, so they do not even notice when they are being negative. Another people saying that they wish they could be more creative, I have found that creativity is not just an ability, it is a skill that can be honed from any ability level, like most every human ability. People that want to be creative have to start to think outside the box.

Changing your status quo is like getting a tattoo, it is painful and it will last with you forever, so make sure you want it. If you want to change your life you will have to fight yourself for it. People are naturally habit driven. For the first 18 years of your life you are a compilation of the things around you, you are part your parents, you are part your friends, part your teachers, part the TV shows that you watch. After you turn 18 you get to choose if you want those influences in your life. I person that got Ds and Fs throughout their schooling and were always told they would fail at life, when they turn 18 they go out and learn a trade, some fight to prove those teachers wrong, and the ones that fight hard enough do.


You are a human being, you draw for people and things around you to build a sense of self, you have the power and right to choose the people that you want around you. If you want it bad enough nothing in this world can stop you, not even yourself.
