Sooooo.I've been away!
In spite of best intentions, I have been away far too long! I took the youngest off to college and the next week I started teaching my new college classes. Three full weeks in and giving the first test tomorrow! I hope they do well!
But sometimes life just happens and we drop the ball...in this case...on my website, but in reality, it can be anything...neglecting an important task that could have dire consequences if neglected...getting too busy to exercise and tend to our health...letting those kind words of encouragement get lost in the 'meant to' pile...whatever it is that you have 'let go' or neglected, now is the time to take one step toward getting that neglected item tended to!
Since this website and the others I hope to build (representing several different business interests in my life) are 'bucket list' items, sometimes they get lost in the tedium of the mundane and urgent! 'Guilting myself' does little to motivate change or rectify a situation. The only thing to do is dive in!
So you have my confession! After being able to spend larger quantities of time on my Wealthy Affiliate activities over the summer (when school is out), I got lost for a month in the tyranny of the urgent! I let my visions of my future goals sit on the back burner for a while. Oh well, Life happens!
But I just heard that one dear friend just wrote a book...something I long to do! He is half my age and way more than twice as brave! That was the kick in the rear that I needed! Back to business!
If you have also put your dreams on hold because daily life is such a 'zoo', won't you join me in just trying to pursue your 'bucket list' for a half hour a day? I have found, of course, that once you sit down to 'do' your required 30 minutes, that you get swept away in the joys of 'dreaming your dream'!
So quit kicking yourself for something you have neglected, and let's both pick ourselves up by our bootstraps and follow that dream! Let's DO this!

I'm with you. Time is not going to slow down, can't recoup what we didn't do. I just have to use my time wisely. I am writing when clients don't show up or cancel.
Thanks for the reminder.

Thanks for the comment Sharon! Time is precious and I have wasted it from time to time just regretting that I didn't 'do it right'. Life's a juggle, and I have lots of things to 'keep in the air' at the moment. I must 'go with the flow' but keeping my goals in mind helps me stay on track!
Blessings to you! Carla

Welcome back to the madhouse lol! Even doing 30 minutes off your 'to-do' list will make you feel like you are back in the swing of things. All the best pushing forward :)
Thanks Jude! I agree...and at least checking in daily with a big task or project at least keeps that 'avoidance' syndrome at bay. Blessings to you! Carla
