Finishing What's In My Cup

Posted Jul 24, 2009 12:44 PM
I usually don't drink the bottom of anything. Tea, coffee, water. I always leave a little in the bottom. I think this is a HUGE indication of what has gone on in my life up until this point. This is the point where I say, "I'm finishing what's in my cup".

You see, usually I take a long time to finish a drink so whatever started hot ends up cold and vice verse so by the time I go back to finish the rest it doesn't taste like all that good. Lukewarm water, cold tea, tepid hot chocolate...no thanks!

Problem is I've done the same with life. I start things and have great ideas but I don't finish them. Obviously we could analyze all day of why and what that means and BELIEVE me I'm an analyzer by nature so been there, done that and that's probably the problem. Today I decided I am tired of over-thinking. I am tired of thinking and not doing what it take for real results, real success in my life.

Today I no longer let fear stand in my way of living life. I will no longer live in a soundproof glass case where I'm stuck watching life being lived around me and having no voice. Today I put my business ideas on paper, with a plan and follow it. Today I'm finishing what's in my cup no matter how much I don't like the taste because I know that life will not always taste good and right path is never easy but it's worth it.

Thanks ladies :)
I am at that same point on this exact day. Today is the day to get at least one item checked off on the To-Do List for 5 years down the road. There is so much out there waiting for us to grab hold to.

The cup is overflowing and as long as we allow it to just sit some water will evaporate and some will spill. Let's take in as much as we can when we can so that we can be filled with greatness.
What a terrific post, Chantelle. And you write so well.
