It's kindof nice to have goals to look forward to. Especially exciting one's that will make me happy once they are achieved. Funny how a goal or even a plan was the last thing on my mind these past few years. Until April 28th, 2005 that is. The first day I touched a record. That's when all the planning began. Actually, let's not call these plans since plans are made to be broken. These are more like steps. Steps that will get me to where I so desperately want to be....
1-Pay off all debt as quickly as possible. (How this is going to happen still has to be determined)
2-Practice/Record/Play records as often as possible to establish myself as a DJ.
3-Collect money for school. (Using many different methods)
4-Attend 9-month Diploma Program in Vancouver, BC while continuing to DJ on weekends.
5-Attend one more year at Queen Margaret University in the UK to complete Degree Program. Again, while continuing to build a reputable DJ status.

But first things first. I absolutely need to shake myself from this work, play, work, play lifestyle I've grown so accustomed to. I need to get some real work done now. How I'm going to do that, I don't know. What I do know is that there are way too many distractions here and now that will make this first step extremely difficult for an assumptive 'Adult ADD' sufferer such as myself.

Too many distractions = no time to get real, personal development work done = no goals achieved.

Personal Need #10 - Shake Myself from Old Habit

To recap, my personal needs were as such:

1-Social Interaction
2-Keeping Everything Light-Hearted
3- Sense of Security
4- Playing and Getting Paid For It
5- Freedom and Independence
6- Assurance
7- Perfection
8- Having Everyone Shine Along With Me
9-Keeping Busy

So if Personal Need #10 is to shake myself from old habit than wouldn't that make all of these other needs null and void?

It's recently dawned on me that I'd have to sacrifice every one of these personal needs in one way or another in order to shake myself from my old habits. I don't really have the time to explain how, but I know it has to be done.

Life always gets a little more complicated before becoming simple again.
