Discipline | The Habitation of Justice

Thank God It’s… Thursday?

Ayup, every other week I get to enjoy a short 4 days off due to following a flex-schedule. Poor wil me. :grin:

I had a couple of things on my mind this week that I was looking to blog about, but now I’m so tired I pretty much forgot about it all. This constant fatigue is something I really need to address soon. Because of my weird working hours, I usually start my job in the middle of the day, and then come home late at night, resulting a wacky sleeping routine where I could find myself getting up as late as 11 o’ clock in the mornings. I’m just not disciplined enough to go to bed at a more righteous hour so I can start the next day like normal people do.

Yet the two most pressing things I need to do is set a schedule to do my law school prepping and prepare my meals accordingly, and then STICK with it. Instead, I have this tendency to get up at 11AM, fire up the computer, and then surf the Internet for the next 10 hours or so.

Not. Good. If I do go to law school, I simply wouldn’t be able to get away with this kind of crazy routine, and even if I could, it’s a very unhealthy lifestyle to follow. So the time has come that I must exert a little bit of discipline, at least to help prepare me for whatever awaits me in 2007. I’m not optimistic that I’ll succeed, but what the hay, I have to try anyway.

Blogging For Blogging’s Sake

Lincoln Adams | August 23, 2006 @ 7:09 pm

I think I need to change the focus of my blog a little bit. Most of my writing thus far has been utter monkey crap, so it’s obvious I haven’t found my niche just yet. I think the problem is that I’m trying too hard to mimic the style of the more successful blogs, and investing too much effort trying to scheme up ways to boost my traffic levels. I really should just write and be done with it, and let the rest take care of itself.

I’ve been a real mess lately, partly because this should have been the time I’d be starting law school and a brand new life, and instead I’m stuffing my face in with ho-hos while watching Grade-B horror flicks on the Sci-Fi channel. Probably not the best way to be spending the last days of summer, but, whatever.

So, where to go from here? Bottom line: I have a year to pull my self together before I start law school. That’s a year to get healthy again, pay off my debts, finish the rest of my law school prepping, and get myself bulked up so I can impress those impressionable law school chicks. :shades:

Problem is, it’s hard to stay motivated when I’m not even sure I’m going to law school. But then I consider the alternative… there IS no alternative. All I have now is a dead end job I’ve been working for 6 years, and 6 years could easily turn into 60 if I don’t start taking chances NOW. So… this is it. The next 12 months will either make me or break me. But I can do it, because I have the discipline and the will to go out there and accomplish great things, right? Right??

Oh hell.
