Habits & Energy

March 16th, 2009 by hmatt

I’ve been trying to do things to train myself and my life to the way I want it to be. How I want to be. How life can be.

Something I was thinking about on the way to work is how intimidated or worried, or self-conscious I can be.. and how unproductive that all really is.

I once heard that you should strive to excel at whatever job you are at. At first this seems counter-intuitive; shouldn’t you be saving your energy for things that really matter? Well I’ll bet people say that because it helps you get in the habit of being awesome. Getting burnt out is a real thing no doubt, but giving up or not trying are the other options.

Those aren’t good options.

The other night I went to a bar with some friends. The music was TERRIBLE and the transitions between each song were very forced.. The biggest thing I noticed about myself is how I didn’t really dance it out. When I hear swing music I’m in my element. I’ll take the girl and do all sorts of goofy dance steps. But when trying to dance in large group circles I get all self conscious.
