Thinking too much, procrastinating too much.
Posted on: Wednesday, May 31st, 2006 at 6:47 PMFellow procrastinators. I have tried various methods to rid myself of this affliction in the past to no avail. Recently though, it has eased off, new found optimism, perhaps mid life crisis at the young age of 28?
Ive sat back for many years, toyed with ideas, had the power to change things, better things yet I never did them. There is a reason for everything, but thinking too much held me back for far too long. Everyone has talents they never show due to fear or just THINKING to much.
Might sound like a cliché, but don’t think, DO WHAT MUST BE DONE. You will always think, but as you think the sun goes down and night must fall, you look in the mirror and you see yourself older, the youthful ideas gone, the concept of the life worth living gone because you fell into the trap of living like a robot. Living to survive, pay bills and not fulfilling what the heart craves.
Then, decades later when you see grey hair, a body that has seen better days, a life unfulfilled. You look out of the window, you see a young person who looks like you looking lost, but that young person also looks like a dreamer. Then for some reason, you will say to yourself ‘ I wish I was his age ‘
Why wish? You were his age. You had the chance, you thought too much.
Now, we all wish to avoid that window into the future, that also looks into the past…
