It's 1:11 a.m... Do You Know Where Your Fishing Boat Is?
It's 1:11 a.m.
I am not sure I have ever been awake at 1:11 a.m.!
Now before you scoff and think Cheap Malachi Richardson Jersey , "what is this guy, some kind of Benjamin Franklin, early to bed,early to rise,blah,blah blah, guy....."
Let me clarify that I have been awake beyond 1:11 a.m. on numerous occasions.
Why just the other day Cheap Harry Giles Jersey , I was wandering around the house stepping on dog squeak toys,banging into walls searching for Tums in the dark,trying not to awaken any other inhabitants of the Klott household.
Of course by the time I had emptied all medicine cabinets, all kitchen cabinets, and turned on every light switch in the house in my futile quest for "the #4 combination plate revenge" relief, I had plenty of company and the usual "here it is right in front of your face", in the first place I had started my 2:00 a.m. prowl.
But I digress.
My point here Cheap Vince Carter Jersey , if there is to be a point, is that I am not sure I have ever seen the "digital clock" at 1:11 a.m.
It's just weird looking.
It wasn't alarming, like every time my calculator spits out a 666 and I think I am possessed,or earlier this year when I glanced at the clock when it was 1:23 on the fifth day of the fourth month of the sixth 's 1:23 on 456 for all you Rain Man fans out there.....
No, it was just weird.
Now to the fishing part.
This post midnight toss and turn session was brought on by my constant worry about my newly painted and "spruced up" driftboat. Yes, if you follow these articles, and if you do --YOU need help-- you will remember that I have been nursing what was diagnosed as a torn rotator cuff.
Since my winter steelhead fishing season was in the tank Cheap Georgios Papagiannis Jersey , due to my bad wing, I decided it was the perfect time to repaint my boat. Well, actually my good buddy Gregorio did most of the work, but I made a great supervisor and held a sander every now and then.
It is now finished.
(The boat-not the rotator cuff.)
Aside from the fact, that what I thought would be a simple little weekend project, (do a little sanding throw a little paint on the outside) turning into a three month reconstruction of both my boat and bank account, I think I am having anxiety about using it.
It's too.... 's too nice!
(The boat-not the bank account.)
Before the sanding Cheap Skal Labissiere Jersey , grinding, replacing of floor boards,new gluv-it,new rubber,new winch rope, new inside surface painting, multi- toned metallic outside finish Cheap De’Aaron Fox Jersey ,and repainting and wiring of my trailer....
It was just a boat.
Now, it's some kind of showpiece. I'M AFRAID TO USE IT!!
I was planning on taking it fishing tomorrow, but I am afraid to put any scratches or dents on it.
The thought of fish slime and shrimp oil on my freshly painted Zolatone interior has me tossing, turning, and freaking out over some late night 111 digital breadstick message.
The worst thing is that I may not be done with my nautical spending spree yet.
Now, the oars look old,the old Evinrude boat motor is hideous Cheap George Hill Jersey , the tires and wheels seem ancient, and my TRUCK? Well, I am ashamed to pull it with that old 2002 clunker!!
Heck, even my house looks in dis repair next to that boat.
I have no room in the garage for it, so I will probably have to build a garage for it, or pay for covered storage somewhere.
I may lose another three months to home reconstruction!!
Maybe, if I slip out and drive it to some vacant field and abandon it, I can still save my summer fishing adventures, or perhaps I will just go outside and start denting and scratching it with a hammer.
So please heed my warning here and think twice before you take your beloved fishing boat and turn it into some unrecognizable glamourous showpiece.
I can never live up to it's expectations.
And if you happen to be in my neighborhood, be sure to throw some mud and a few fish guts on it.
That way, I can get back to sleep......
Self-Sabotaged by Research
A woman in my MasterMind group posed a question today: why did she spend all her time doing research and never actually go on with "doing" the thing she was researching? She loved looking up information, finding resources Cheap Jason Williams Jersey , interviewing people, gathering facts. But taking these facts and applying them to her business seemed to always be put on the back burner.
It's called "analysis paralysis". The idea is this: if I could just gather this information, if I could just find this fact, if I could make this list a bit longer -- you get the drift.
The cause is simple: it's easier for many people to research than to "do" because gathering research is often a successful task, while acting on the research is fraught with the possibility of failure, stress, or pressure. So we stay in the research mode because it's safe and we get a lot of positive feelings about having uncovered the information we need.
Don't get me wrong: research is vital. I've seen many businesses fail to thrive because they haven't done the marketing research necessary to see if people WANT TO BUY the service or product they want to sell. The key Cheap Vlade Divac Jersey , as always, is balance. When you find yourself doing more and more research, then you can bet you're procrastinating on the "doing" side of things. You have two choices:
1. Try to figure out why you're not doing the work, or
2. Just do the work.
Either choice is valid, but guess what? Choice 1 is still "research!" :)
