staying the course

intro to 'spective

I've come to realize that it's easier to chart changes in your life on a daily basis than a yearly one.  Meaning, anything on the surface is easy to spot out, anything underneath the surface takes more effort to see.  Meaning, when all you care about is looking good on the outside, you're not taking time to notice what the hell is going on on the inside.  Meaning, it's been some time since I've taken the introspective approach.

To be comfortable is to stay away from the things you fear.  If you fear dying in a car crash then you drive slower.  If you fear bleeding to death then you avoid knives.  When you fear failure then you seek to avoid the risks resulting in your demise.  I'm thinking that everyone 'stagnant' is being victimized by failure.

I have a growing respect for anyone willing to make bold moves and even more respect to those that have failed making bold moves.

With that said... I'm considering drastic action.
