Gun’s Quote-of-the-Week:
“I learned that we can do anything, but we can't do
everything... at least not at the same time. So think of your priorities not in
terms of what activities you do, but when you do them. Timing is everything.”
-Dan Millman
I’m back.
It’s a foregone conclusion that I haven’t written one of
these in some time. Life has really been crazy over the course of the last few
months, and frankly something had to give. I don’t think anybody likes making
the conscious decision to give something up, even temporarily, but at the end
of the day, 50 people are subscribed to this blog and probably fewer read it. In
comparison to fixing my house, doing my taxes, attempting to get washboard abs,
buying a car, having a girlfriend (and then going through a breakup) and buying
two major appliances that decided to go caput, the decision on what to
sacrifice became clear.
My boss calls this “juggling.” Each ball that you juggle is
a priority in life. They are different for everybody and some have to be in the
air and others have to be in your hands and require your immediate attention.
You can only juggle so many balls and if you have too many in your hands at once
the ones in the air fall.
Gun’s Quotes fell.
For now, things have settled enough to where I am writing this
small explanation of where I’ve been. I do very much hope that I can get back
to my ordinary weekly writings, and I do very much hope that I can find the
creative energy to keep them at least interesting if not helpful. Let’s be
honest… one of the other reasons for the sabbatical was a pretty serious case of
Writer’s Block.
Thanks to all of you who had inquired over the course of the
last couple of months to see what’s been going on and who also offered thanks
for the times that I do write.
…and that’s why it’s a Gun’s Quote!
