Working for strength or misery

We either make ourselves miserable or we make ourselves strong. The amount of work is the same. Carlos Castaneda

Whoa! Read that again! We spend the same amount of energy, work, time, effort making ourselves strong or making ourselves miserable. That's a powerful thought to ponder. The ways in which we expend said things look different but the amount of those things is the same. One way will lead to your life being enriched, the other way will lead to you wading in muck and mire. Gee. Which sounds more appealing? The good news is that you can always change directions. So if you find yourself wading around in muck and mire make a direction change today and start gaining strength!

The End of Affirmation 365

I've been thinking about it for over a month. Usually, when I'm in it I'm engaged. But this time? I started it indifferent and I've felt indifferent all along. I should have never started. Hindsight is 20/20 they say and they aren't wrong. So when I opened my eyes this morning it was clear. It's time. Time to quit this 365. This is the first 365 that I haven't posted several of the days, the first 365 that I wasn't super excited about, the first 365 that I've quit. I've changed my social media presence and interactions the past year so this is also the first 365 that hardly anyone has been interested in. Is it the topic or my decision to not be as accessible on social media? Or is it some other reason altogether? Well, regardless...I'm throwing in the towel on this one. I can't say if I'll ever do another 365 again. Time will tell and I will know if and when it's time.
