The Final Stretch
**************************************
"The Waiting Place:
Waiting for a train to go.
or a bus to come, or a plane to go
or the mail to come, or the rain to go
or the phone to ring, or the snow to snow
or waiting around for a Yes or No
or waiting for their hair to grow.
"Everyone is just waiting."
Waiting for the fish to bite
or waiting for wind to fly a kite
or waiting around for Friday night
or waiting, perhaps, for their Uncle Jake
or a pot to boil, or a Better Break
or a string of pearls, or a pair of pants
or a wig with curls, or Another Chance.
Everyone is just waiting." Dr Seuss
Except you.
As you have traveled the last 80 days, I'm sure you will have noticed how many people are doing just that. Waiting. Waiting for the right moment, the perfect time, for someone's permission so you can do something. Waiting ...
*twiddles thumbs*
But I hope as you have traversed the pit stops, the highs, the lows, the successes and the setbacks - you will have found some way to pick yourself up, dust yourself off and go again. That's all it takes, the single decision that today you are not going to wait for the perfect "anything" because today can be perfect if we want it to be.
We really are on the last stretch of this challenge. You can off course now say well I've come this far I'm going to carry on regardless, or you can ring the bell and leave the room - the ultimate decision is always yours to make. HOWEVER, with the daily disciplines you have now created, you probably won't need to take a day / week / month off because your challenges and your goals have become the habit we were hoping for way back in September.
By the way, when everyone else is trying to find their motivation to begin working on their New Year's Revolutions on January 1st - you won't need to worry, because you'll be coming off several major successes, and ready to go again.
Deep breath challengers, the final stretch is ahead. Time to push just that little harder?
