Forty Days

first let me say that my shift key tires me as it does not work properly. tonight i will not be using it.

forty days is a magical number. at the end of last year i spent this number of days determining my mission, purpose and voice. but before i get to the forty day part, i want to talk about a task.

in the midst of applying for jobs with boundless opportunities for the coming year, my mind felt overworked - and overwhelmed. in this knowledge i went to my favourite communication point, threw up my arms and said to God - what is it you want me to do, i cannot decide, my life is yours to live. at that moment i was given, not a job, but a task. and the task? to improve my communication.

as far as the 40 day timeline goes, i can see that i am going to have to spend the next 40 days developing better habits. i have developed some new, positive habits - but now i need to work hard on reinforcing my mission, having it firmly in my mind, meditating on it daily and allowing every decision to be based on that. my purpose will be made know through my mission and my task will give me the voice i seek.

so 40 days to think what a life with these priorities looks like. everything which comes my way - does it fit in with my mission? no - then be gone with it.
