"Impossible" by Figurine
I have been getting up at these times all week: 6:03, 6:04, 6:02, 6:01. When it seems I am developing real human qualities, a pattern of robotic behavior like this emerges.
Right now I am just waiting:
1. Will I get this job? and will I accept it?
2. What do those two literary agents think of my work? and will they want to represent my book?
I was told traveling and taking time off to write a book endangered my career. I knew it was a risk. It is reassuring then that these two experiences have become assets during my interviews. They said it shows that I know what I want and I'll do what I need to get it done. They said it shows that I can start something and finish it. I did not anticipate they would react this way. When I was younger I didn't really know how my life would turn out. I still don't. But living is pretty easy now and I use these questions to guide me:
1. Will you regret doing or not doing this five years from now?
2. Would you have your son do what you are about to do?
3. Is your choice respectful to others and to yourself?
Everytime I feel like not doing something, everytime I have a hard decision to make, everytime I'm stuck, I think of these three questions and it usually makes things very easy.
