Probability and Procrastination

The more you procrastinate, the less likely it will be that you achieve your goals.



Stop making excuses, (even really good ones!) and start moving toward what you want.

By taking a step forward, you will dramatically increase the odds of you writing your life story and achieving your goals and dreams.

Start now.

Zeno's Paradox

Zeno's Paradox states that when you are moving forward, you must arrive at the halfway stage before reaching your goal.



As an example, let's say you are walking to your car. Before you get there, you must be halfway there. At that point, you continue to move toward the car, but now you will reach a halfway point again.

And again. And again.

In Zeno's Paradox, you would travel, one-half, one-fourth, one-eighth, one-sixteenth...and so on.

Or, in other words, theoretically, you would never arrive at your car because you will always have to move halfway from point to point.

Well, that doesn't happen, does it? You have probably walked to your car perfectly fine this morning.

That's because Zeno's Paradox does not take into account an important factor: time.

Time is not made of indivisible moments.

Now is now. It cannot be divided.

And that's a very good thing.

When we move toward our goals, we are in 'now.'

And great things happen then.

So, go write your life story.

Now.

Busy vs. Productive

Are you getting things done and writing your life story?



Or are you just busy?

Have your written down your goals and dreams? These are the framework for writing your life story, similar to an author constructing a plot.

Writing things down helps to get things done. 

While actions begin with your thoughts, when you write something down, you transfer that thought to the physical realm, which is a step closer to completing it.

 You will make your life-- and your life story-- more productive when you stop being busy.

Like and Share

"Like" and "Share" are two responses for Facebook posts.



What kind of response do people have for your real life "posts?"

Is what you're doing and saying something to be liked and shared?

If not, you could change that.

Write your life story, for yourself and those around you.

Where's the Future?

Where is the future?



Is the future a 'better' time to fulfill your dreams and goals?

Is it best to wait for that future?

Or maybe the future is when you will have more time to write your life story?

Exactly when will that be?

Psst...here's a secret.

The future is here. From the time I started writing this blog post to this moment, the 'future' arrived.

Time moves forward every second.

Don't wait for the future to write your life story; do it now.

Today.

The Day After

The day after an event or a major holiday always seems to be a bit of let-down, doesn't it?



All the preparation and expectation seems to lead to a day or an event that is over too quickly.

That doesn't happen when writing your life story.

Each day is a page in your story.

Each day comes with the possibility of something exciting and amazing.

Look for the best in every day.

It's there.

When Something is Missing

There is an unmistakable void in our lives when something or someone is missing.



Perhaps you physically lost an object or a person you love is no longer around.

You can either look for what is lost or accept that it's gone.

If it's meant to be part of your life story, it will return, if not, don't seek to restore what should not be.

Writing your life story may require some hard choices but make acceptance and hope the main characters.
