I have a new focus in life.

I want to be a writer.

I have been journaling privately for near 10 years now as of 2025.

It’s about time I write publicly and publish frequently.

The wealthy are always thinking about time and I do not.

I think I should be more mindful of my time.

To have front of mind: “Is this what I want or is this a distraction?”

There are many distractions in my life at this time admittedly.

However I have eliminated a lot before:

• computer games
• phone games
• social media off my phone

I want more money, just like everyone else.

However I wish to do in a way that no one that I know in real life has done, which is by writing.

I live amongst a lot of people who do the normal 9-5 or work 12 hour shifts in the hospital.

It scares me the thought of pushing myself to become such a good writer that at some point I’ll have to give up my “stable” nursing job.

I know that the 12 hour nurse shift pretty much takes my entire time and energy away from writing.

If I am not spending my time thinking about “How do I get better at: Writing?”, how will I ever achieve the heights that I seek.

If you are not in control of your time… what are you doing with your life?
