"Be Active Not Reactive"

Once I accomplish one step, I find my self taking a step back. Feeling that I should take a rest giving myself every excuse as to why I should. This reaction causes me to revert back to my old way of thinking. Which is in no way active, obviously. Think back on anything you have ever accomplished. It was because you were active. You were DOING something. This is the state I wish to be in. And it commands a conscious effort of always finding that one thing to DO, no matter what it is. Its so simple, yet I find my self reacting. Why?? Perhaps it is because over the last sevral years I have just been floating, letting the current take me where ever it pleases. And in doing so I have formed habits of thought which cause me to react instead of leveling up and taking action. How do you change a thought habit. Its just like any other habit. They say it takes thirty days to break an old habit and form a new one. Now im thinking that I should write down at least one active thing I can do each day, besides the needs that are demanded of my own self. One thing a day. And Im not allowed to do it until all other "chores of life" if you will, are accomplished fir that day. This brings to mind what a close friend of mine told me yesterday. And its nothing new. I have heard it my whole life. Prioritize my free time. Maybe free time is not the correct phrasing. At this point in my life I have no free time per say. I spent the last several years indulging in unproductive free time. Its one if the simplest most basic principles. Work and work hard and you will reap food... and Im sure there is more to that but Im hungry so food it is. This was more for my self and to get my thoughts out. But if it does help anyone, awesome. Take action, EVOLoVE.

P.s. I  found a job. Now time for the next action. Don't wait till Im forced to react.
