I definitely got off track…

It’s so easy to forget what helped you get to where you are once you get there…

And I’m not referring to the people who supported you along your journey, although there ARE times that people forget who helped them to succeed…

But what I am referring to is the habits and disciplines that helped you to establish the foundation that you built as you were working to achieve your goal…

I have thought about this a lot lately because I found myself suddenly drowning in what I will refer to as “ a sea of success”…

It’s like everything that I had been working towards happened all at once and I wasn’t ready…

But I’m glad this drowning took place because it exposed to me that I had started slacking off on some of the small disciplines that ultimately played a larger part in my success than I had realized…

I am also glad that I am well aware that life is a journey where I am figuring out or reminding myself of what I need to be doing…

I am grateful for this understanding because I know that I simply need to add those disciplines back to my routine and keep moving forward instead of wasting time beating myself up because I got off track…
