SYTYCD is probably the only reality show that can move me. I look at some of those kids and their back stories, the adversity that they had to overcome, the hard work that they put in to hone their craft, to become somebody, and it's honestly inspiring. It makes me want to get up off the couch (or more accurately out from under the blanket on my bed) and do something, do anything.
All the troubles I've been having with my house falling apart this past month have also made me realize that I've been neglecting things for way too long. The house should have been painted at least two years earlier. I should have paid more attention to things. Maintenance is key to home ownership. If you let things go, they catch up with you, and things snowball. And before you know it, you are knee deep in a money pit.
I think it's just like life. You cannot just sit around and not pay attention. You have to get yourself up and do things. If you want something, work towards it. If you have an hour free, clean the house, work out, practice your craft, do some honest good labor. Don't just lounge around because time will just steamroll over you and your dreams.
So this is my resolution. That I will from this point on, do things. Little things, big things. Just be productive. It's going to make a difference.
