Get Out of the Way

Hey guys, welcome back. I've found myself being in a rut. The repetition of work, being in the heat, the body aches, adulting. It all sucks, I now understand why adults say don't grow up. It's depressing, don't do it kids. It's hard and long. There's no winter, spring or summer break. You might get holidays off if you manage to get an employer who allows you to have holidays. Vacations are an option, but if you aren't granted vacation time. Leaving work for a while without pay maybe out of the question. With that being said I'm in need of a vacation. I don't want to do anything, I have what feels like a million things to do. My money goes out faster then it comes in, it's frustrating. Being an adult is frustrating. Unless you were born into money, which I wasn't, it's hard.

I went into all of this to say I need to get out of my own way. I want to be successful and have more then what I have now. The only way for me to get these things is to stay focused and take the steps to make them happen. Only I, can make my dreams come true. It's a little cliche but it's the truth. If I want to get that new job I have to search for it, apply to it and hope for the best. I have a garage of soap I need to put up for sale on my Etsy store. I'm the only one who has to make the time to make these things happen.

Last Christmas I expressed my interested in moving up into management. My bosses were on board and excited about my interest. Flash forward to today and I'm still working my 12 mile route in the heat suffering from heat exhaustion and achy joints when I could have gotten out of my own way. Instead I dragged my feet wasted all this time rather then trying to attain a better opportunity. Especially when I know and my higher ups know my capabilities. I'm finally seeing what my dad sees in me.

So Get Out of the Way: of your dreams and possibilities. Don't be too afraid or busy to make your aspirations into something tangible.

Thanks guys, go be great.
