I committed to writing every day 8 days ago. So far I have stuck to the commitment but today I had the familiar thoughts of “It’s ok if I miss a day, right?” the same mind that spoke that almost bought it too!
I swear sometimes it’s like one half of my mind manufactures garbage and the other buys it believing it just purchased valuable goods.
Someone I trust once said “discipline is the horse I ride” and I love to imagine that I approach my life in the same way but the truth is I fail time and time again to be consistent.
I am consistent so far in trying again though, and that I believe counts for something. Maybe the things worth bring consistent in are the things that I never stop trying to practice even when I fall short time and time again. Other practices might drop away over the years but the once that are still around after a long time are the things I am pretty consistent in these days.
