I mean, I have more hours a day available than most people because, simply put, I don't sleep like normal people do. That's fine with me, however. What is not fine is the amount of things that I continue to do that are completely irrelevant to my person in a general sense. There's a list:
- I play League of Legends.
- I monitor social media. Usually facebook or twitter. Mind you, the twitter is relevant to a point because I find work through that channel and so on.
- Skyping with friends gratuitously.
On the other hand, there's a growing list of things that are being pushed aside for those things that are probably more important like:
- daily exercise. Mind you, it's not like I don't exercise, I just need more of it. Like biking and jump rope.
- drawing.
- writing letters.
- "sticking to my plans".
So yesterday, I picked something that takes up more of my time than facebook and I said my goodbyes to that thing. I marked it down internally, but I want to put it on my calendar.
Today, I've felt better in a general sense about some things and some of that directly tied to my goodbye from yesterday.
I think about some other things that have gone on and I'll post about them a bit in another entry, but right here, I want to encourage you to say your goodbyes and part ways with the little (or big) detractors that creep into our lives in spite of our best efforts and distract us from our passions.
I've said the first of many of mine.
OMG there are so many!!! Where do I start ;)
