My Epiphany

Walking down the hall at work the other day, I was struck by the horrifying realization that I am turning 31 this year. Following this thought I could not help but ask, have I achieved the goals I hoped to accomplish when I was young? I immediately knew the answer, it was a resounding no! I am happy, but my younger self created such an ambitious idea of who I should become. I have let that young man down and the only one to blame is me.

While cliché, I feel this call to action. It is time to take charge of my life and create the moments around me on my terms. No more wallowing in regret because of lost time. Every day I will reach towards achievements that can transform me into a better person. No longer will I allow stress and laziness get into the way. I need to do what I want to do. No more excuses… period.

This blog will be a journal describing my rebirth as a better human being. The hope is to monitor my progress as a means of self-reflection motivation. For readers who stop by, I hope you find some entertainment in this blog and become active participants in motivating me towards the correct course. Perhaps readers will learn some new tricks that they can use themselves.

This new desire to reach my full potential flooded my head with a large number of ideas and goals. During the next few weeks I will focus organizing those random thoughts into something that I can use to move my life forward.

While some people might consider it to be a mid-life crisis, I consider it to be a rebirth. Have you had an epiphany like mine?
