I get to choose what I do everyday. Yeah, I tell myself that I have to be at school, that I have to go to class, but that's not actually true. The truth of the matter is that I chose to enroll in these classes and if I didn't want to I shouldn't have done it. But this is what I do want: I like being a student and I like learning (I just don't enjoy studying so much).
And there are all sorts of other decisions that I get to make during my day, every day: what to eat, what to where, how to act, who I want to be and how to spend the time in between productivity and obligation, they're all in my hands. More often than not, it's so much easier for me to take the easy route and fall into routine. It's easier for me to assume that every day is the same as the last and act in a pattern that fulfills that probability. I take no action to challenge myself and where I am today because right now everything is so good.
But sometimes you have to walk away from the good to make room for the great.
