Slow and Steady, Easy Does It: When Quitting Means Winning

[image error]The tortoise and the hare. . .enough said.

It’s already 25 days into the new year–wow, time really does fly. Anywho, while everyone is silently berating him or herself for not keeping any of his or her New Year’s resolutions, I’m flipping motherf*****g cartwheels because I finally did what I have been loathed to do for years: get out of my comfort zone.

Encased in cellophane wrap and placed on dry ice in a styrofoam cooler, my spirit remained voluntarily caged in convenience, naivete, and fear.

I slowly killed my development. By now, I could have a million and one YouTube followers; churned out memes faster than it takes Teslas to charge; and busting a move in the middle of Times Square to my fave K-pop songs.

I’ve been feening to dance Exo’s “Love Shot” in public.

Look at this sexy sh*t. . .

Hmm, hmm, hmm. I got my Derek Zoolander model face ready.

K-pop really is magical.

Anyway, I’ve always thought of myself like that little nine-year-old from that video that everyone plays in his or her Crack videos on YouTube: “I’m a bad b*tch. You can’t kill me.” But I wasn’t fully living up to the persona: to go get it, to stare my adversary down and tell that h* to bring it.

So, I FINALLY took step one: I quit my job. Scary? Somewhat. Freeing? Hell, yes!

Moses: Let my people go.

Me: Here I comes, Moses, here I come!

Now that the hard part is over, here comes the easy part: living. . .real living.

Cheers to making 2019 your year by living your YOU.

Peace.
