Moving Forward by Staying Put

So I’m sitting there, on a Tuesday morning, in a Catholic Church thinking: ‘Why am I listening to this? Is that really relevant to me?’ The impulse was to start to try to convince myself that once again, this was the wrong path. Then it dawned on me; that’s what he wants me to think. Who is ‘he’? Call it anything you want: resistance, reptilian brain, habit, fear, the Devil; doesn’t matter, the point is that I always get to this point, we all do, whether you go to church, start weight lifting or quit the cupcakes. We all get to this point, the wall of resistance that makes us want to quit.

This time its different, this time I can see the signs, the signals and the ‘temptation’: “Forget all this stuff, let’s do something exciting, let’s go shopping, lets build an online empire; you know you wanna!”

Actually, this time I don’t, this time I sitting right here and this time I’ll see it through.
