Moving Forward
on 09/25/07 07:18 AM Published by TravisjHinman

I have spent a lot of my life looking forward. I now have moved forward. There are areas of my life that I do need to improve upon, example: I over promise things to people because I am a nice person and want to make people happy. Well, I can't do that anymore. I am now transitioning that to myself. I am focusing on my happiness which in turn will give others happiness! It's not hard to let people drain you of your happiness when you are a positive person. If you are not careful, you will turn around and be a negative nancy! 

As I said in the first part, I am not doing any looking. I am moving forward. I am able to accept things a lot easier when I consider the move in comparison to the look. See here is how it breaks down in my head. If I say I am looking, that means I am sitting idle and waiting. When I say I am moving, that means to me that I am taking action. I am a take action kind of person, always have been. I don't panic much. I do knee jerk though. But ya know, who doesn't? That is another task, another blog. But the moving forward feels so positive and I am happy to finally be doing something for me! I will do this in all aspects of my life. My professional life, my personal life, even my dating/love life. So if you know me, please support me when I tell you no about something. I have been over promising and under delivering for a while now and that needs to stop. Nothing is more important to me than my integrity. Nothing. So if I lose that, what do I have? It's not like I have a nice car, great hair a house of my own and make a lot of money. When you have stuff like that people tend to stick around longer when you mess up. Makes no sense to me. So all I have is my word and moving forward, I will not over promise. I will keep my schedule accordingly and only do what I say I can. Or only say what I can follow through on!

 

There you have it! Moving forward! TjH

The ability to promise and fulfill is vital to personal empowerment. I am always asking similar questions to myself. Am I acting out of any place of guilt or obligation? If the answer is yes, then it goes to why?

The answer usually results in fear.

Creating and defining boundaries of what you will and won't do is vital. If you are not living in a place of choice, some sort of consciousness of choice, you will be choosen for.

The idea of intollerance is not often a popular topic in our society but it is vital that you exercise some level of intollerance to define and hold your personal space and maintain your own enegetic and pyschological health.

So congratulations on your decisions to move forward.
