Day 134: Structure

*GASP* A Type A who is grateful for structure?!  Say it ain't so! Yeah, yeah this one comes as no surprise to those who know me well.  But stick with me, those of you who don't feel so grateful for structure, and maybe I can get you to at least consider it. :) Here's why I am grateful for structure - we need it, no matter if we are Type A, B, C, or D. Everyone needs some kind of structure in their life.  It might look different for each of us but it provides a foundation upon which to stand each day.  It gives us accountability, a direction to go toward, a framework in which to build our days from.  Oh sure, we can each go a day or two without structure but examine yourself closely after a couple days of drifting about and see if you don't feel a little at loose ends without having lived out those days without whatever kind of structure works best for you.  Stop thinking of structure as a bad thing, start seeing it as the helpful thing that it is.  It isn't a cookie cutter kind of thing either, what my structure looks like for me is going to look very different for someone else.  The point is we all need some kind of structure and we can be grateful for it. I know I am!

Critics don't even buy the "at least they are doing something" statement.  However, you have to start somewhere. And every bit of awareness helps something go from short term to long term.  We all have a part to play. Read a Road Map Day One of the many reasons I would stink at The Amazing Race is because I never did learn how to read a road map well.  I remember doing worksheets and class lessons on maps and I was able to skate by to pa
