The proverb "Slow and steady wins the race" echoes through my mind as every day passes. I can feel myself in the lull of my life. I feel extremely calm and collected even when there are a ton of things racing through my mind or even in my life. I can consider myself lucky to be in this place of peace and happiness but at the same time, I know I need to remind myself that I need to keep taking a step forward every single day otherwise I will not go far in life. I have goals that I know cannot be achieved in one day. "Slow and steady wins the race."

I totally forgot to post about this, but I ran 3 miles on the treadmill with an average pace of 10 minutes! It was last Tuesday so September 23, 2014. I decided to just attempt running 3 miles again which I haven't done in awhile. It was exciting to have hit the mark fairly easily. For the most part the first 2 miles were a breeze at 6 mph and toward the 2.5 mile mark was when I started getting tired and a bit cramped at the knees. But I still trudged through and upon hitting 3 miles, I celebrated inside!

Time sure does fly! Almost 2 months since I last posted and a lot has happened! Life has been good but also stressful. I only hope that time slows down soon so I can take a deep breath and soak in life and invest in my future. I doubt it will happen as so much change is occurring. It may not be until next year that things begin to settle into a nice cadence. At the very least, I hope I feel like I'm soaring as time flies passed me. But I'd like to at least update on what has happened!

This is a response piece written in response to Forget Setting Goals. Focus on This Instead. written by James Clear on Entrepreneur. This is an old article as it was written December 17, 2013 but I just saw it on a friend's Facebook wall. While reading the article, it struck me the wrong way which is odd because I clearly agree with his ultimate "goal" (no pun intended). But don't get me wrong, James Clear had some really great points that I wanted to address! I won't cover everything he discussed but will try to cover some important ones!

This month has been really crazy. Finally moved in with my girlfriend and have most everything unpacked. She still has a lot to unpack but she's waiting as there are a ton of other things still to be moved up. We have a sofa arriving this weekend too and man does it feel nice. I've also gotten sick which has sucked a whole week out of my life. Actually more but it's also sucked 2-3 weeks of my girlfriend's life.
