Aim high young man

humble soul

You think aiming high is a good idea?
I should have dreamed of becoming a lawyer, a doctor or even Prime Minister?
Aiming low has its problems too, you know.
I let anxiety win. And became a cleaner/janitor. ( This is morphing into another self pity thread...oh well )
What about aiming high as a Christian? Slave to Christ? Never liked the word slave. Actually aiming to be a slave sounds like you are aiming low. Ok ok..no more jokes like that ...God wants us to aim high by being low.
I'm a cleaner. That's low. But humility is tough when your self esteem is on the line. Actually I think it is easier to be humble when you have good self esteem. Then you are just acting humble. You don't feel humiliated.
 
But ciriusly, ...
Aiming high is good for the soul. Having goals is good too. If we don't have goals, we are just spinning our wheels in the mud. Letting the cobwebs grow.
What are my goals this year?
To survive.
That sounds terrible. But but but...my physical problems. I could hardly walk after work yesterday. You making excuses again humble. Lift your game. Do the rehab exercises religiously. Lose some damn weight for humble's sake. Get a grip. Stop typing these sad monologues. You can make a comeback. But you gotta stay focussed man.
Aim not to be in this situation next year. Aim to be walking without pain by 2022.
You gotta get on top of these leg issues. Otherwise you will stay and decay where you are. You want that?
 
If I look back my walking ability has gradually declined over the last 2 years. Now I make a big deal about walking the dog to the park which is only 400 metres from my house. I used to think the park was too close. Always saving my legs for work. Mistake I fear.
