    This is excellent. This morning, whenever I hear myself stating that I don’t have time, I began asking myself, “Why not?” And, I hate it when people say not to read books. What sense does this make? OMG. Y’re RIGHT. If I increase my typing speed (more than study formatting, most of which I already know), I can (finally) pass my course, next week. Thank you. This is SO timely.

    Yeah often things are made less or overcomplicated. Theres logic behind the way the world works and how you should approach it. In order for something to happen it needs an impulse (cause and effect). But we need to keep in mind why we want things to be done. Its often because we want the freedom afterwards. Some peaple just forget what they even work for.
