It's hard to explain the waves of thoughts going through my mind right now. I've had so much going on at one time for so long that I'm starting feel the burn.

And it's not good. Here I sit with this nagging urge to graze. I generally don't overeat... in fact it's pretty rare.

I know why I'm "grazing," but I'm not sure what I'm going to have to do to re-balance my act.

I need to act. I need to find a way out of my inaction... out of my stupor. My ambitiousness is so high, so motivated when I'm not at work, but as soon as I walk through the door it is like my will to live is just sucked right out.

And I'm not sure that consuming sugar in the form of Zingers is a good plan, but I'm doing it anyway. Bleah!

Last night, I was watching television, and on the program I was viewing, one of the characters was giving her valedictorian speech. One thing she said jumped out at me... that opportunity is rare.

Is it?

I don't think that opportunity is rare. I do think that it is sometimes elusive, but I think that for anyone who is up to the challenge, opportunities are everywhere. Most people just don't know how to recognize them.

Luck can be attributed to a lot, but personally I think luck is given too much credit. If anything, luck is a catalyst (in either a good or bad way) that inspires one to think differently. Circumstances and coincidences challenge someone to rise up and overcome... and ultimately achieve his or her dream.

Or, they challenge someone to lie down and give up.

Which challenge would you take? Really?

I posted a while back about how people are so afraid of "failure" that they are actually afraid to succeed. It's uncanny the way most people are so afraid to fail that they embrace failure.

I know. We can smell our own! I'm just working on having the faith to take the necessary leap and start reaching for my dreams.

It's time to wake up. It's time to reach again. It's time to escape.
