Good morning crickets. Welcome to day number one-hundred-ninety-nine of Operation Achieve Anything. Just my luck, my back finally starts to feel better to the point where I’m no longer bedridden and guess what happened next? I woke up this morning feeling sick to my stomach that all that I wanted to do was throw up so I could go back to bed. Though I got the throwing up done, by the time I got back to my room, I decided to get the day job over with instead.

This turned out to be a good idea, especially now that I’m on this new graveyard split schedule that allowed me to wrap everything up by 1:00 in the PM so that I could spend the rest of my day trying to catch up on my sleep. That effort didn’t turn out as well as I spent the whole afternoon tossing and turning until I finally just gave up.

Now, I’m feeling a lot better but am now exhausted and just want to go to finally get the rest I’ve been chasing throughout the entire day. With that said, let dig into the assignments that I’m here to report on for today. First, yesterday’s assignment was to take a look at the path I’m on and note whether I’m moving at all, and if so, am I pointed in the right direction.

Though I always like to point out that I’ve been failing at goals for over twenty years, I’ve probably made more progress with my persistence than the world will ever be aware of. This is why, as much as I like to share my flaws, I also often point out that I’ve always been prolific in my efforts to figure things out. I’ve always felt that I’ve been continually moving, many times to a flaw, like when I start to run when I think that life is starting to get too stagnant.

As for if I’m heading in the right direction? Since I want to explore a life with no pre-established roads, it often becomes hard enough to even clearly see which direction I’m heading, let alone, whether the said direction is right or wrong. Along with this blog, where I make my own rules, I eventually want to start reworking all off my fictional work to share on this site as well.

I don’t care if I get paid for my work, or if this plan will lead to more readers. I just want to know that when I die, my life’s work will be available to the world, even if I’ve yet to fit the pieces together to where my work makes sense as my personal opus and is still filled with flaws. So, since my primary goal is so singular, I don’t really care which direction I’m heading as long as the driving force is still within my sights and since that driving force is writing, which can be done from anywhere, the goal that leads my way will almost certainly always be there.

As for today’s assignment, I’m supposed to think of a time where I was inspired to make a significant change that turned out to be a success due to an effort to escape discomfort and from not actively trying to get ahead. The point being, a lot of people who are stuck, are so because they are comfortable. As someone who’s never felt comfortable in my life, I have a lot to say about this one, but as always, you’ll have to wait for tomorrow’s update to read what I manage to come up with. Until then, it’s now time for me to sign off by saying, good day and good luck to you and all of your projects.

Talk to you soon.

Sincerely,

The Wicker Breaker
