I’m Insane

We all know the quote from Albert Einstein about how the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Well, I’m as insane as they come.

I don’t know if you know this about me, but I’m a complainer. Big things, little things, significant things, insignificant things, pain, work, school, life, you name it. I don’t know why, but I seem to complain about almost anything. Instead of taking steps to change that, however, I just keep driving the complain train (is that a thing?). Well, the buck (train) stops here.

I came to this epiphany last night after concluding a meeting with my book club. We’re currently reading “Lean In” by Sheryl Sandberg, and even though we’ve only gotten about halfway through the book, it’s opened our eyes to a lot of things we never really thought about before. Women need to feel more comfortable to be able to go out and get what they want out of life. I don’t do that. I complain about things I don’t have and then I don’t work harder to get the things I want. I told you, I’m insane.

It’s time to put a halt on my insanity, at least for a little while. It’s time to stop complaining and put my words into action. It’s time to move forward. It’s time for me to actually sit down and think about what I want to do and what I want to get out of this life.

I’m trying to learn to be more sane. Let’s see how this goes 🙂
