Musings

I’ve rested on many laurels:  Military/veteran/writer/spiritualist/warrior (this one is used so much many can’t even define it)…etc.  While it’s great to pat my own back (5 minute time limit) or have a nice meal after an accomplishment, I have seen the danger of wallowing in certificates/titles/accomplishments (We all know what happened to Rome).  Now my sole measure is whether I have taken action to improve THAT DAY.  And yes, sometimes rest is a necessary step to improvement.

Every time I wake up, I try to forget how I’ve defined myself so I can be born anew.

    I like this, recently I read the desire map, a book about reorganizing your goals around how you want to feel, your emotions (instead of setting goals around your idea of succes ), and it sounds/feels like what you wrote here. Now, I’m trying to feel a certain way at the end of each day.
