Take a Risk

I realized today that I am not willing to take the risks it requires to get what I want out of life. All my goals require a little risk-taking, and I've been shying away from them, and then wondering why I can't get what I want out of life. I think it's high time I start practicing some calculated risk-taking.

Comfortable With Being Comfortable

It is late at night, and I don't have to work tomorrow, so I thought I'd take some time to get my thoughts out. I've been pondering my life lately, and sifting out what's working and not working.

Resolutions for 2014

Things I resolve to do in 2014: Consult God before all my decisions. With all the opportunities that will be coming up soon, I will have to make some quick decisions.
