Trekking Nepal (Part 8): Procrastination is a bitch

in #travelfeed5 years ago

Tomorrow... the place where ambition lies and our to-do list from today goes to die.

Today I came to the realization that it's been over a year since I embarked on one of the most amazing journey's of my life, yet I still haven't processed or posted the complete set of photos.

I didn't plan for it to be this way. In fact I didn't even notice. Procrastination ever so slowly ate away at my goals like a river through limestone.

However, rather than spend ting the day hating myself I figured it would be a little more productive to just pick up where I left off.... And that was somewhere up in the mountains after leaving Tilecho lake.

One of my favourite quotes which I think came from Mr Microsoft himself is:

People overestimate what they can do in one year, and underestimate what they can do in ten years

I couldn't help but contemplate that thought as I sat staring at these stone walls that stretched as far as I could see. To build them seemed an impossible task, but there before me stood a shining example of the power of waking up and just focusing on stacking the next rock.

So as I fall asleep tonight with an impossibly large light room catalog to get through... tomorrow I will simply wake up and stack that next rock.

Good night everybody.
