Shift into high gear

 

Ever feel like nothing is going to stop us now? You made your decisions with life and you are going to stick with them? No turning back, keep on the path, and no changing what so ever? What is stopping you from improving your talents and perhaps making yourself feel a lot better? If people were not pushing me to improve myself, I, would have given up a long time ago. This month I will be going into a training to see my strengths and weaknesses. A bit scared of facing my weaknesses but life will improve when I know them.
I have been listening to Making Mountains Move an inspirational podcast from a knurly straight dude. He tries to make you go improve yourself with a pep talk. Why is it so easy to blame others and not ourselves? I heard on a bus a complaint that the bus driver made someone late for work. Forget the others who were getting on and off. They were mad. No calling in the boss to see if they could switch around their schedule or asking a coworker to cover for them. It was the drivers fault. Good analogies I think to point out are you blaming yourself and hiding so you do not disturb? New York subway rider called faggot and beaten as commuters watch. Why do we allow other’s to be hurt and not stand up? Are we too busy thinking they or we deserve it?
Where are the inspirational speakers of our community and where are the supporters of our leaders? Sure we tend to attack one another and argue they do not know what they are talking about. Yet I find it amazing there is 0 out state legislatures or representatives in Michigan. While we are looking towards a fiscal cliff it is nice to see other’s from our community coming together to argue for Employment Non Discrimination Act. How about housing and public accommodations to add to that?
While business is booming for the homophobic wedding cake baker, and the gay wedding planners are grinding their teeth on prop 8 case. What are you doing to ease the tension and bring out the best in you? Try relieving stress and getting out there networking. Thanks for reading and allowing me to attempt to get you motivated.
