My Cheek, She is Burning

I’ve been bitch-slapped by a quote people. How you ask? Well, part of my New Years Resolution was to do a full-scale overhaul on every single aspect of my life. I sat down with a pad of paper and made a long ass list of everything I’d like to improve or revamp this year and then sublists of what I need to do to make the main goals really happen.

Needless to say after I finished writing I sat back and looked at the mass accumulation of lists and thought in a total panic:

“Where the fuck am I going to find time to do all this?!?!”

I got my answer yesterday in the form of this quote:

“Don’t say you don’t have enough time. You have exactly the same number of hours per day that were given to Helen Keller, Pasteur, Michaelangelo, Mother Teresa, Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Jefferson, and Albert Einstein.”

–H. Jackson Brown, Jr., writer

Pretty freakin’ humbling eh? And I thought I was a busy bitch…pfffbt. I’ve totally been put in my place.

Be honest now, do you find yourself needing this particular bitch-slap?

  1. Can’t really argue with that. “I don’t have time” is usually my excuse for everything… hm.

  2. It’s not that I never have the time, I’m just lazy.

  3. You’re right, it puts you in your place real quick. It’s easy to keep saying don’t have time to do something, but that really isn’t an excuse.

  4. ….maybe if ya’ quit making all thise lists you might have time?

    Okay, I had to say that….here you’re getting all philosophical on me

    Please, may I stay in my own little world?

  5. ….arrgh…my word is “dipwad”

    It’s like the machine knows what I’mma thinking:

    maybe if ya’ quit making all the lists you might have time?

    Okay, I had to say that….here you’re getting all philosophical on me

    Please, may I stay in my own little world?

  6. so much for making corrections…..

  7. My problem is the opposite. Right now, there is so much time, that I feel I can procrastinate with everything.

    Then, it all hits me at once.

    Drag. Total drag.

    CP.

  8. There weren’t more hours in the day back then?

    Wow…
