Excuses are not Your Friend!

  Moving is a much bigger task than I had anticipated. Having to move twice in 3 weeks time as well as needing to find a new place to call home during that 3 week time frame has been all consuming. There is this ripple effect that happens as you start to pack up, move, then move again, and then unpack. I was fortunate though to have some great help from friends and family. Logan and his friends were amazing. I would highly recommend this group of teenage boys. They came with oodles of energy, enthusiasm and muscle.

Initially I had a good reasons for not getting many of my requirements completed, but if a person is not careful, at some point those reasons can change into excuses. And I have realized that excuses are not my friend. An excuse is not supportive or productive and an excuse does not lead you down the right path. An excuse enables mediocrity.

This past week I have been working at getting back on track with all my requirements. I finally feel like I'm settling back into a somewhat normal routine after my move. I'm still feeling the ripples, but they are getting smaller and smaller. My numbers are still not where they need to be, but I am taking steps in the right direction and getting more done than I had in previous weeks. I am focusing on what I can add into my day to create forward momentum and success. Everything that I get done is one more step forward.

Namaste,

Michele Ward
