Subscribe to the 2W2aB feedMy last post, yesterday, was about my choice to go veggie. In the last 24 hours, it has been interesting to reflect on the difference of
BEING something
and aiming TO BE something.
It has been on my list of things to do - go veggie. And when something is on the list, it takes up space in the brain. These "aim to be" lists gunk up our heads!
Now that I am a vegetarian, I have one less thing gunking up my head.
It strikes me that there are many other things gunking up my head and that perhaps I ought to either BE them or get them off the list and out of my head.
How about you? Are you aiming to be so many things that you don't have the energy or drive to be much at all?
Yoda says, "do or do not, there is no try" I'm not sure I always agree but there is something safe about the "I'm trying" or as you say "I aim to be"

I love that Yoda quote. Yes, it is easier to aim to be but actually this makes things harder due to these aims gunking up our brains.
