I need to change things in order to keep up with the Universe. The world around me is constantly changing. I am constantly changing. Sometimes it is a matter of dismantling everything, acting as if I have no plan at all for life and then from this starting point of ‘0’ I can re-construct my life with no past influences, no future influences, just what is in front of me right now. I lay out out in list form and then transfer the items to a schedule. This is how I get peace. This is how I find comfort. My peace of mind and comfort comes from knowing that I have some sort of plan for what I will do, when and how while at the same time maintaining the flexibility that comes from recognizing and most importantly accepting that things will change, and I will not always be able to stick 100% to that plan. I have to be ok with that, otherwise I get stuck.

If I find myself stuck, the best thing to do is start over, acting as if there is no plan and then re-construct. I can do this any time and as often as I like and I can get excited about the new beginning every time I do this, every day, every hour, every minute. It all comes down to one thing. Perspective.
