“Simple is not easy.” I’ve never thought of that before. It’s brilliant – I’ve wrote it on a sticky note and put it above my desk. Thanks for that.

I’m new to your site and am enjoying your posts – very thoughtful stuff. I’m looking forward to reading more!
Best,
Laurie

I think that self decipline is much improtant to become a successful person in this world. In every feild there are rules and regulations and you have to follow them in order to find success in that feild. We should be keen.

I’ve been reading the comments and find it as valuable as the post itself (thanks for the link to the Lombardi speech).

You wrote a great article and helped create a great discussion. Just wanted to share that!

Steve,
Thank you! I believe one size doesn’t fit all, and the deeper we go into personal transformation the more we have to become an expert about our own lives. I believe the best gift we can give one another is to try to see our own experience clearly and share what we’ve learned. You did just that in your last comment. Please keep us posted about your ongoing adventure.

This explains a lot… No seriously: it does. I have an IQ over 140 and it’s never been difficult for me to learn. I read something one time, maybe two and I get it. I’ve never had to put in much effort, even when teachers gave me extra work so I would not get bored in class. Now I’m 21, in college and it takes about 90% of my energy just to turn on my computer when I have to do an assignment. I want to (failing feels embarrasing), but I can’t, if that makes any sense. It’s like there’s no spark, nothing to fuel my inner fire if I may be so corny. I think you’re spot on about needing to test my limits. I have one great passion: writing. I have the feeling that my ‘vegetive’ feeling (sorry, English is not my native language) will dissapear once I start a novel, pour every last bit of my soul in it, and then kick, scratch, growl and bite my way to a publisher. To just focus solely on writing to the best of my abilities and then fight to the teeth to get it in stores, blowing away the competition. If I did that, I know I would feel alive again…

… so why am I afraid to get started?
