About Sprints and Strolls

Post 519:

Short one today. I’m in one of those go-modes where I’m stacking pages, humming along. Progress is being made. I work my butt off no matter what, but if I’m being honest, sprinting is more my style.

Maybe you’re like me. The mood is right and you find yourself unencumbered by bills or health problems or time drains—so you just kick it and rock on—that’s generally how it goes, until I burn out.

It’s probably better to be steady and consistent. Easier on the constitution. No holes in your achievement tree or whatever.

In the end, we all probably end up at about the same place, the same time. The ones that care to get it done always do. The others fall by the wayside. So do it how you do it, and don’t read some dude’s book about how to do it. That guy never wrote anything that great.

Excuse me. I have to burn myself out. Ironic language, considering the fact that it’s below zero outside and I can’t feel my toes.

Keep running. Or nap. Either one. Cheers and see you after.
