Finals week is upon me, and I have way too many things to do before this semester is finished. I tell myself before the start of every semester that this will be the semester that I'll stay ahead of my work and finish all of my homework early. Unfortunately, I have not been able to meet my goals. There are a lot of things I could blame for me not getting my homework done, but it really comes back to my inability to say no to people. I've always been the guy who is willing to go out of his way to help people, and I have always enjoyed being that guy. However, I'm slowly realizing that I need to learn how to be that guy, and still be responsible at the same time. I take on more and more responsibility every single day, but I haven't been getting anymore responsible and that's not how I want to be anymore. I've implemented a few new strategies into my life that will hopefully get be on to the track to becoming a more responsible human being, and so far they seem to be helping. They're just simple things like getting up early consistently, replace watching television with reading, and running at the same time every day (weather permitting). I've already noticed a change in myself, and I feel like I have a lot more energy. Maybe even enough to get me through finals week.
Praying,
