Thought of the day

In settling in to the routine of my new job, I am now seeking to find more balance in life.  I know, i know, it's something everyone seeks, so this is really nothing new.  The challenge for me is actively seeking it instead of just talking/writing about it.  I tend to have the best of intentions, but do not exactly always follow through with everything.  This time, I will at least try.

I have my vices.  We all do, let's be honest.  I have to be careful with mine because I tend to rely on my vices to decompress.  And, admittedly, my vices are not the most healthy things in the world.  Nothing illegal or anything, just unhealthy when over done.  So, I need to change things up, switch my daily routine, find new things to vary life.  I really need to start working out daily.  That would be a wonderful way to burn off energy after work.  I feel like I have been doing that "exercise imagery" where I just imagine myself working out instead of actually doing it.

I tend to get set in my ways because it is comfortable.  And, although there is something wonderful in comfortability, it can be detrimental as well.  At least, that is my opinion.  If I make small changes here and there, they will add up to something larger and better for me.  Like today, I normally make my coffee first thing, then sit down at the computer.  This morning, I did make my coffee per usual, but I sat down and read the paper instead.  I made myself do that for half an hour before checking my email.  It may sound like something small to you all, but to me it was a nice step in the direction I want to go in.

Anyway, that's my thought for the day today.  We shall see how I progress!

Cheers
