Summer 2009

I'm making this summer the best summer of my entire life! This is the last summer of the decade! This is the last year of the decade! I really want to end this decade with a bang. I want to start the next decade on the right track. And I want to make the summer of 2009 the most amazing summer ever! (And then I want to make every summer after that even better.)

This isn't just talk. I'm already doing it. It feels so great to be actively striving for maximum potential. I've had some pretty lame summers before, so I already know what's that's like. It's time to move on. It's time to really make the most of my time here. It's time to smile upon any challenge that comes my way and then on top of that, go seek out even more.

I seriously don't want this summer to be something that is barely memorable in 20 years. (Or worse, not memorable at all!) I want to make the best use of every single day I get. In 20 years, I want to remember this as the summer where I drastically changed my life path in a positive way.

I want to read more books. Fiction, and non-fiction. I'll even read them outside, because I want to fully enjoy the weather.

I want to create as much as I can. I've recently starting drawing again. I want to actually challenge myself to learn new techniques and to get better. I want to practice as much as I can and produce as much as I can. The same goes for writing music, regular writing, painting, sculpting, and whatever else sounds like fun at the time.

I want to jog more and maybe start weight lifting again. And I want to eat healthier.

I'm going to rise to the challenge of actually trying to get more money. Usually the idea of applying for jobs or working two jobs would turn me off, but now, I don't even care. I'm so optimistic about the shit I want to do that paying the price with a little extra work doesn't even phase me.

I also want to put some serious effort into my own business ideas. Everything I've ever done has been half-assed, but not this year! I'm focused and driven.

I want to meet more people and do amazing things with them.

I want to always be in the present moment. I want to always be doing something that satisfies me. No more wasting time. No more idling around when I could be challenging myself and making progress.

If I want to do something this summer, I'm not going to come up with excuses as to why I can't. If I don't have enough money or knowledge to build a protocol, I will find a way to get the money and the knowledge. If my car breaks down and I can't afford to fix it, I'll personally ask 50 mechanic friends to do it for me in exchange for any favor they might want before I'll ever use it once as an excuse to not go do something amazing if the opportunity presents itself.

For the first time in my life, I'm willing to work my ass off and put in the time, and I'm also having more fun and being more fulfilled than I've ever been. Isn't that funny? :cheese:

So, what are you doing this summer?

your post just inspired me to be a lazy bum this summer, knowing that you'll have my back by overcompensating. :D

other than that, congratulations on writing this down man! NOW GO AND BE. ACT. SHAKE ABOUT! :) :) i'm with you 100% (and if you lose steam i will be there lovingly poking you with a sharp blade)
