Restarts

Every month or couple of months I go through a ritual of re-finding myself and adjust sails according to where I want to go/be.

I'm still surfing the last time I did this, way back in January 20th: http://royrivers.blogspot.com/2012/01/on-roll-again.html

I can trace back to that time, my final stretch to find God, becoming much more productive writer, becoming a better friend, a better family member, a better teammate, and taking bold steps in my personal and professional life.

I believe it's not a coincidence I've become a Christian and I've been able to keep this up for such a long stretch of time, so, I should also give credit where credit is due.

I still find it important to go through that process again and again though. There's still a lot of improvement to make, I've lost track/speed on some of my goals, and there's still a couple of things I haven't been able to implement in my life yet.

Voluntary work for example.

As a university student, too.

This bloody game has been siphoning too many hours a week as well: http://www.paradoxplaza.com/games/crusader-kings-ii .

That game somehow also killed my "turn of the desktop pc and just work a couple of hours a day without it being on", and I want to re-implement it again.

And that's exactly what I'm going to do now.
