Strive or not to strive?

Inevitable in any new venture there are dreams of success as there should be. But the tendency I find myself falling into is striving to make it happen. Now there are those that may have different experience than myself, but I have been finding that the strive approach just aint working for me any more. When I think of striving, I see visions of Rambo fighting his way through the many obstacles to reach base.

Maybe it's my age, but I really feel the better approach for me is to flow and even more importantly is to have fun. So although I have focus on my material success enjoying the journey is my top priority and call me foolish but I really believe that enjoying the journey will surely bring me the success I seek (and if it doesn't, who cares, I enjoyed the journey)!

So to all of you I wish a pleasant enjoyable journey toward the success you seek!

That sure does sound like a great way of looking at life. You sure do have to have fun while succeeding!!! Good luck and great success!

It makes sense. I wish I had started this 5 or 6 yrs. ago, knowing I could keep working til everything up here was humming along. Now at times, it seems I'm driven as much by desperation as desire, which can actually stall my creativity. I'm more of the Tom Sawyer type who wants to lay around out in the yard on a cool autumn day dreaming up ideas. Not the guy that has to bust his ass all day to keep up the maintenance on the property and people around me and squeeze in a little time for writing late at night and early in the morning.

Hi Tom,

THAT is a good attitude to have! If it ain't fun, why do it? I am like you, just at that age where I can pick and choose what I do...Enjoy your ride (loved the "looking around" joke...)!

Yes, I will not call you foolish, seriously we should enjoy our online journey, lol. Thanks for sharing.;))

I quite agree with you Tom, the journey is the exciting part, success is the bonus. May we all have both! Ches

classic , good speed to your success Tom . Agree its all about enjoying the jourmey .

Nice post. Enjoy that journey!

This is my view as well Tom. I have really enjoyed the journey so far. I love starting new website and doing some initial pages and posts to see where the 'subject/niche' is going to take me.

Just getting a small thing done like publish a post feels fabulous and uplifting.

Hi Tom,
No to striving! Keep a high vibration."Mirth" if you can reach it. I'm absolutely convinced that's the only way to create ones successes.
Poor dog....funny joke though.
Best,
Stephanie

always focus on the process and not the product my friend :)

PS I hope the dog is OK tee hee
