Day 18 Month 7 - One step at a time

Good evening All.

I have just retweeted a quote that says " One step at a time is good walking" Chinese Proverb, and I kind of had an epaphany. It seems my whole life I have been trying to run somewhere. Run, go faster, get there quicker, finish first etc, but all I have done is hold myself back because I have never truely completed anything in my life. By wanting to do everything faster, and usuallyu getting lots wrong along the way, I have stopped myself from wanting to finish at all. In essence I have managed to create a habit of failure. I read something a long while ago in The Masterkey System that said if you are not going to finish something, then don't bother starting. I have not only created but managed to maintain a habit of failure.
As most of you know I am still looking for a job and although I have some work lined up that will help pay the bills in September I do not have a job, I woke up this morning really depressed at the fact that this is my last week in my current job, and then I realised that when we come home from SA, I can leisurely walk my son and daughter to school. It will be the first time ever, I think, that we will not have to rush out of the house to be dropped off somewhere.
I will also be able to do all the washing and ironing during the week without having to give up my Sunday afternoons to the ironing board. I will be able to mop floors and clean toilets without worrying about when I have to be here or there. And most importantly I will be able to spend a decent amount of time copying my written work into the computer and editing out the crap and perhaps have enough courage to actually walk my way, one step at a time, into finally writing my book.
Yes things will be tough financially but we will survive.
So here's to finally slowing down and hopefully taking it one step at a time.

In love and light
