Hello there!
I am trying this blog thing for, oh, the third or fourth time now. I figure it'll be a good way to keep my writing skills sharp, at the very least.
I am reading this book right now called "Utmost Living: Creating and Savoring Your Best Life Now" by Tim Storey. Hey, you only get one, right? I'd like to make sure I'm living it to the fullest.
He talks about the things we've all thought about doing but have for one reason or another not pursued...the things that we have the "can'ts" about.
As in..."I can't keep a blog. What if people think what I write is stupid?"
And while the book urges the reader to find their purpose, passion, and priorities in life, it's not just about the big things. It's about consciously making choices about the things you do each day, so that you are orchestrating your own life, rather than just letting life just happen to you.
I am not too far into the book yet, but the author is really engaging, so I am committed to actively participating in the exercises, as Mr. Storey asks the reader to do, rather than just passively reading along, in order to actually reap the benefits of the book's recommendations.
So I will provide an update as I progress in the book. I hope I will learn some things about myself and have a much clearer idea of what I want out of life and how to get it rather than just sitting around thinking about it.
But I promise to check back soon...with updates on my progress with the book, and more. I hope you'll come back to see me.
Until then...
