The Here And Now

Ok, so it’s been a little while since I posted any of my thoughts. That is probably a good thing, however I feel it is time I do what I do.

I have been working on a self improvement plan which includes stop smoking and to cut way back on my intake of alcoholic beverages. So far to date it has been nine days since I had a cigarette and almost two weeks since I drank more than I should. I will not say it has been an easy task, on the contrary it has kicked my ass. I can honestly say I believe my body has been going through withdrawals. Oh well you have to give a little to get a big return.

I am also trying to live in the here and now and believe me that is not easy either. By theory ones life would be much better if this can be achieved. It has been hard for me because I am a planner and like to know what’s coming next. I have begun to think is it really that important to be such a person that I know every move of the day. It is just how I have been conditioned to live for the past five years being in the corporate world. However I have been out of that world for almost five months and need to stop being so structured. I don’t mean to become a complete slacker, but maybe a half of a slacker. You know the type that rolls with the punches of life but still get the important things done. Is this even possible? Hell if I truly know, but this half ass slacker will find out during the next phase of this journey….

You slacker friend,
Neil
