Festive times here! And new beginnings! And the start of longer days! We are always on the lookout for a new date, to start something new. Birthday, new year's day, or Gudi Padwa, or Diwali or Dasera, or even the first day of a month, or the week, even Chinese new year, if nothing else comes up soon.
This constant and perennial wait for the day from when everything will be right, all will happen on schedule, and life will be good. Hope floats! And when we are unable to pull off the ideal schedule or routine, after a few days of following it, we look for the next available date, so that we could start this effort all over again.
There have been times when I'm motivated to start something, but just because a good date was coming up after a few days, I've delayed the start until that good date; never mind that I might end up probably not starting anything on the chosen day. A similar twist to this, is that if there is an impending job or overbearing deliverable, either at work or elsewhere, then we wait for the next slot after the current engagement is done.
All in all, it is always a fight, not so much to do good for yourself, but the obsession to stick to a schedule.
