Many Updates
3 minute read
NOTE: this message was written because I started a new journal… although it might not exactly make sense, the gist of my vision going forward does: ACTION
This log will note actions that I have already taken – a look backwards. This will push me to continue taking great action and not just seeking attention or validation for things that I have not done yet. This will also allow me to [internally] change my mind as much as I need without telling the world. I want to practice telling people what I do and not what I would like to do. Updates will be sporadic since my schedule at the moment keeps changing.
This log is in contrast to my PREVIOUS LOG where I very much needed to sort through my ideas but also enjoyed the exhibition of being open with them. I am tired of surrounding myself with other people saying all the things that they would like to do… and then doing nothing to achieve them. I am also frustrated with myself with being that way, but we all need time periods to vent. That time period is behind me for the time being.
I am over my doom, gloom, and overly emotional stage. I feel and know my feelings better, but I need to pair action with those feelings. I will continue to use my old log as needed, but by deprecating it, I am prioritizing action.
Action does not need to be a win everyday. Action needs to be experimentation, effort, and facing fear, worry, or insecurity head-first instead of just writing about it. I have a great local support group of friends to help me along. I have you guys and the forums to encourage. I have myself to keep going.
It’s time to hustle.
Today is a busy day, so I’ll have to keep it brief before work.
Actions
- Divorce decree is signed and awaiting court date to finalize it… there’s very little action left on my part aside from waiting
- I am quitting my bartending job (putting in my 2 weeks notice today when I go in to work)

- I am moving to Mexico City 2 months (mid-Aug to mid-Oct) to continue an [old] dream of mine to study and improve my Spanish at the university there
- ^^^Plane and lodging already booked
- I’ve been continuing my various other journals for: sleep, food, exercise, weight, Spanish, and guitar

- Many other minor things that I’ll write out later
