4/19/2020. Dead. End Thinking

   
    Walking the same road over and over again. We have to ask ourselves, what do we want to accomplish here. Say every Sunday we take some time to evaluate our life. Keep a notebook handy, one that is sturdy with a strong binder and when open lays flat. Date each entry day, month and year. Write down what you are doing and the amount of satisfaction you get from it. This way you will monitor your progress or lack thereof. If your not satisfied then think of ways to make that pivot. Then the hard part comes, putting it into action. Action is the key word here.

    
    My friend Dan was married about 4 or 5 times. We were working at Dan's house one day when he gets a call from his ex girl friend , can you come over and give me your opinion on my front steps. He said ok, and I went along for the 40 mile ride. We gave her a price, she wasn't keen on it. Dan was mad because he would do lots of odd jobs for her in the past for free. Dan was trying to get me a job.  I said on way back, why you always doing things for your exes? He said your right, I'm done. I said yeah... A couple years later were working on an art project when he gets a phone call from his girlfriend, an electric switch just shorted out. Could he come fix it. We head on out, when we get there she was entertaining a man. Dan goes off, a bunch of yelling. Dan is still upset but he fixes the switch nonetheless. When we headed back in car, I turn to him remember a couple years ago, you said you were done fixing things for girlfriends? He just glared at me. He still hadn't moved on. Circumstances will repeat until we do what we say were going to do.

    Dan was married either 4 or 5 times, He was getting ready for number 6, running around getting things organized for a couple of months. He was out doing another task for the wedding when he gets words in his head, what are you doing, you don't have to get married. He stopped and thought. Oh, that's right maybe I don't. He cooled it on down and overtime they went their separate ways. Dead end ways were finally over.

    You set a goal and spirit will help you attain that goal. Bringing the circumstance around and around til we do what we said we were going to do. Know who you are and what you want. Be firm about it. Spend time at least once a month going over your goals and asking Spirit for it's help.
