The snowboard effect!

2015! New Year new me right?.......Na same me better focus! I find it funny how people think going from Dec 31st to Jan 1st is like a transformation. Like you wake up a new person....Na it don't work like that Homie. Your the same person! Only thing that changed is the date. But, I do enjoy hearing "New Years resolutions" because goals are being thought of and that's the first step. I just get upset when the "resolutions" are dropped by February and I can't help but think why? Guess only the people that talk about it but won't be about it can only answer that question. What needs to happen is an increase of focus! As in don't give up until you do what you said you will do.

I started this year off on a good note. I didn't ever see myself snowboarding in my lifetime. But, on the first I was able to do something I thought I couldn't. And that is the theme im sticking with all year. Doing things I thought I never could. Snowboarding is wild! I mean I fell down so much I thought to crawl down the hill lol But when you latch your feet onto that snowboard you make an agreement with yourself: you agree to snowboard down this hill until it's safe to unlatch your feet. And that's like making the decision in life to become whatever you want and not stopping until you become it.

Ya boy did learn something. No matter how many times I fell I had to get up. I didn't have a choice how else was I supposed to make it down lol. I paused after a fall and said to myself "what if I keep this attitude with whatever I do"? Get up! Jimmy Get Up! Cuz I know I'm gonna struggle and I'm gonna be let down but I need to Get up and keep trying. If I keep getting up I'll out number the times I fall. And that's just facts of life! I'm sticking with it from this point on. I decided to call it the snowboard effect. Copyright is in affect lol
