Never Gets Any Easier
My girlfriend and I were out with another couple last weekend and they happened to be younger than my younger brother. While having a conversation with them about this, it just made me feel old. I don't feel or look old, but mentally I have felt change.
Then I was talking with an older friend and he told me that going from 32 to 40 was quick, like a blink of the eye. Now that hit home. So now I am trying to slow down my life. Everything was just moving too fast and I still wasn't going anywhere. This year, I made a choice to put work third, family and friends second and my health first.
Yet, I am torn. Because I still want so much more with this life and trying to build a better future. So my objective is to work smarter not harder. Plus, trying to learn new things and read/listen. Taking the opportunity to find new areas of interest that I was missing in my life and my career. Hey, I am also playing the lottery, maybe this will be a lucky year for me. It's not about the money, it's about the dream.
So I am slowing down and writing it down because it's never gonna get any easier.
