Balance.

 I seriously need to work on this whole "Zen" balance sort of things. I really hate it when i have to skip Aim High because I have homework. I understand that school is more important, but i know that I`d rather be training at Aim High. It really gets irritating when i don`t have everything balanced. Because when im not balancing my life, i forget things. And they`re usually really important. Like journaling. Or a 500 word rough draft that is due the day. At least im good at getting work done quickly. Sometimes i feel when im not balanced, i don`t "have my head in the game", or im not doing things to the best of my ablitlity. This bothers me alot sometimes, because i like being a perfectionist. When my assignment didnt look very clean and i was 3/4 of the way done, did i finish it and turn it in? Nope, I started it all over from scratch. Though when i was done, I felt a whole lot better about it. This is how I sometimes feel about balance. When im rushing myself, i begin to get sloppy. But when i slow down and take a step back, i end up performing a whole lot better.

Difficulties are opportunities to better things; they are stepping-stones to greater experience… When one door closes, another one always opens; as a natural law it has to, to balance.
