No prizes for guessing why this is late tonight! Yes out in the sun playing ‘obstacle course’ with my daughter. But now we have nice read faces (from running, not sunburn) here is the note today!
All about distractions.
I’m working on a project I started 3 years ago, maybe even 6 years ago when I first left corporate. I kept starting, and stopping, and getting stuck.
But now its in full flow.
I’ve cleared all distractions that were in the way from making it happen.
I didn’t realise they were distractions. I thought they were real things. Busy to do lists. Real work. Life. Even other projects that took up the time and space but I wasn’t really committed to. All these things that took priority.
And now I wonder were they just distractions?
For some reason.
We want to do things. We know we want to do them. But we put all these things in the way.
Because? Well maybe because of fear.
Because if we don’t start we cant fail?
Because if we don’t start it will always be there as a one day comfort blanket?
Whatever it is. And whatever we choose to do instead of the thing we really want to do (or have a go at) is nothing but a very convenient distraction.
So what are you doing instead of having a go at what you really want to do?
