The days are getting shorter and the summer was moody

It seems like we’ve left summer in July.

I know that may seem a little dramatic since we’ve had some seriously hot days in August but once it turned August first, the weather shifted immediately.

The shift inspired me to jot down my thoughts and I saved it to share with you now.

This is the week where everything got pushed to the next day.

Start editing the previous videos?

Nope, I’m too drained, I’ll do it tomorrow

Cook a hearty breakfast?

Nope, I can only manage a simple one today, I’ll do that tomorrow?

Hmm, how about I write something for my newsletter subscribers?

Nope, I’m just going to finish reading this book, I’ll do it tomorrow.

The difference with this week and previous ones is that I gave myself the permission to choose what to focus on.

Normally, I’d honestly try to do to everything on the day it was scheduled but this week had other plans.

One thing I’m truly proud of is understanding that putting something off till tomorrow doesn’t mean I’m abandoning it forever, I mean these are normally the things that get repeated every week like clockwork.

I fully enjoy doing these things, however, my body asked for a break so I obliged.

Funny enough, I’m currently sitting in bed under the covers writing this on my phone while the chilly August breeze creep through the windows whispering, “summer is over.” Or for dramatics “Winter is coming!”

When it comes to summer days (not the too hot to function ones), I choose denial, I want it to last forever, (I was born in Jamaica, what did you really expect?)

But in truth, nothing lasts forever and what matters the most is how you choose to live.

So choose a life you’ll be proud to tell stories of to anyone who asks. Remember your chosen path with never be the same as someone else so don’t get caught in the trap of comparison, it’s simply a waste of time because no one can do it like you do no matter how hard they try.

Rest when you need to, laugh always, don’t stop learning, keep moving, eat and live well.

The summer has been a rollercoaster of emotions and the one thing that kept me moving through the days was being creative so that’s exactly what I did.

I documented it all in my Life Unscripted series on my Youtube Channel, here’s the link to watch, enjoy!

Cheers to the summers that are way too short.

Cheers to going outside and experiencing life.

Cheers to you and the stories you’ll tell.

Thank you for being here.

Now go enjoy my creations

Happy viewing!
