Playing catch up with the work and assignments has created a scenario, similar to what I used to experience during finals week in college.

That GO, GO, GO pressure, which was accompanied by the feeling that you could only do so much in any given day and what was not done or learned was going to be left behind. You would be going forward into the exams only with what you were able to study and learn with the hope that it was enough.

Oh h h. . . . Those were the days and SO ARE THESE.

In college I finally came to the conclusion that the pressures of your senior year and finals week were ACTUALLY part of the training. The pressures were there to make you stronger. To help you gain the confidence that comes from seeing something difficult, through to the end.

Such is the impression I have felt at times as I have worked to catch up from being gone.

All is not lost though. I have begun to see changes in my attitude and thinking. I have gained a new insight into the importance of HABITS. I have also had some very significant Ah… Hah… moments and insights, as I have sat still, listened, felt and thought about concepts.

One such experience came this morning. The insight sunk deep into my soul that if one I or anyone would actually consistently apply good habits of thought and action, The ONLY RESULT THAT COULD HAPPEN WAS SUCCESS. It would be inevitable. That is the only outcome that would be possible. Those things would actually guarantee success. It is the only choice that could happen. Success would be inevitable.

That is a powerful insight. Let that thought sink into your mind. Contemplate and consider what it REALLY COULD MEAN IN YOUR LIFE.
