Getting It Together

We spend so much time acting like we got it all together; that we never manage to get close to having it all together.  Let’s put down the pretense that we have arrived and make some progress.

It is a sign of pride or insecurity or both; when we try to act as if though we have no pride or insecurity.  None of us have it all together.  Although, I will admit, some have it more together than others.  No matter how bad our situation and issues, when we realize that we don’t have it altogether and start working on getting it together; we are much better off.  Just coming to the realization is a major step.  The saying, knowing is half the battle, is true here.  When we stop making excuses for where we are in life and start making changes; we are much better off.  I choose today to admit my faults, insecurities and mistakes (like folk didn’t already know them) and start making progress in getting it together.  You choose the ‘it” you want to get together and then start.  Starting is a major step.  Once you get some momentum going, you will find it hard to stop.  Make today the day you change your life for the better.  You can do it!
