thank you tim ferriss.thank you
thank you
THANK YOU.
the four hour work week.
finally
someone has the bawls to turn the 9 to 5 on its head.
(april 27) i read the book on sunday
opened this blog on monday
surfed all day tuesday
and now im singing praises on wednesday.
in a quick byte:
after almost killing myself
with grueling 16 hour days
sleepless nights
demanding customers
suffocating traffic
YEARS of wasted time
and other unmentionables
i packed it up
ALL OF IT
left nyc
gritting my teeth
white-knuckling the continental armrests for a 10 and a 1/2 hour flight to
("what th f--k am i doing?")
HAWAII
that was 9 months ago.
everything ceased to exist
i disappeared
didnt answer the phone
erased 80% of my "contacts"
didnt check my emails
stopped watching television
didnt lay my eyes on a newspaper
if i heard nonsense or gossip
walked away
i didnt even want to sit in a theatre
i didnt want to know anything.
i realized life is too short
not one of those persons who just lets that line
fall
out of the side of her mouth.
i really REALIZED it.
i dont have time to waste!
GET LIVING!
so life became all about me
first
i needed rest
i had to make up for YEARS of lost sleep
so i slept.
anywhere
anytime
whenever i felt like it
as long as i felt like it.
i threw out my
alarm clock
and pretty much any clock.
i didnt know what time it was
i didnt even know what day it was.
i asked my self
everyday
"what do i want"?
"what do i love"?
"how do i want to live"?
and
slowly
as i cleared out the clutter,
and the musty closets of my over-burdened brain and my under-nourished heart
i began to see what it is to actually
live
so now its wednesday (i had to check with someone else)
april 30th (the blog told told me)
2008 (got that)
and this blog is officially dedicated to
an exploration of passionate living
more to come...
