Well here it is. My first post. I heard about Steemit roughly a year ago, started an account a couple weeks ago and am just accessing it today. I've been trying to think of something I'm passionate about and the truth is, I have many things I'm interested in, but I don't feel like I'm super passionate about anything, at least not enough to talk about (I think the internet is more than overflowing with cat pictures, so I spare you...for now.)
Through this minor struggle, I've realised my one true passion seems to be procrastinating. Procrastinating is at the root of almost everything I complain about (oddly enough, another passion of mine.) Had I not procrastinated about one thing, another thing would be running smooth, I would have more money saved, I wouldn't be getting so chunky, I might own a house by now, I would have quit smoking years ago instead of right now when I have the stress of no job, going back to school and trying to make sure my 18 year old is set up to start living her own life (18 years to prepare for this day and I'm not even close to being ready! I am the master procrastinator!!!). To top it all off, I love complaining...procrastinating even prevents me from doing that because all of my "bad luck" is my own fault!
I don't know about you, but when I actually think of everything I haven't accomplished because of procrastination, the list is almost crippling. As so, whether or not anyone reads this, I'm just jumping in and ending 2017 with my first post to get something (anything) out there and hopefully it gets things rolling. Every year, I commit to make changes after the new year. Every year, these changes get pushed until they become the following year's goals with the burdens of allll the previous years' goals falling onto the current or upcoming year. This year, I'm trying to get started ahead of the new year. While everyone is suffering with hangovers, regrets and you guessed it...procrastinating, I will have already checked some things off my list therefore making my transition into 2018 relatively smoother. I hope.
And just for the sake of a little randomness, let me introduce you to my dog, Leroy. I'm hoping to start embracing the days and the little things as enthusiastically as he does. Well, he gets really excited if you let him smell your burps, so perhaps I don't want to be AS enthusiastic as he is, but close.
