The way up, on, and over.

A good plan today is better than a perfect plan tomorrow.‘
I felt like writing down this quote. It seemed like a good way to start. I'm having trouble with it lately. Starting that is. Maybe it's because every start means that there will be an end. Tying loose ends, closing circles, finishing chapters - an outcome of some sort.  It doesn't matter what we call it. It's kind of scary. Being the thought-out person that I am, I feel like I react with fear when I’m uncertain of the outcome. Uncertainty being the operative word. But truth is, as long as I don’t start, uncertainty is all I will have. It's like darkness, stare at it for too long and you will eventually see what isn’t there. And oh how my mind likes to play. I know I must be talking in codes, but maybe some of you might also be working on your graduate work or whatever kind of a creative project and may just relate to my torment. Self-doubt is never good. It clutters the mind and keeps us from being the awesomest versions of ourselves. I feel like I need to remind myself that ‘the worst outcome of not trying is never getting to fail‘. I feel good about 2015. Hope you're well, my beautiful humans. :)
