The Second Step...

I began my debt free final journey last week.  This week I find myself feeling a little stale, anticipatory, and anxious.  Why?

Because I want to take another step.  I want to take several steps, in fact.  And I want to be at the end already. 

Yep - having the "are we there yet" moment.  I know I can only move as quickly as each payday gets here.  I understand that I have to be patient and work each step as it is meant to be. 

I am impatient with myself.

The second step on my journey is a week away. 

It's not any farther away than it is at this very moment, and as each moment passes, I get closer to the next step.

Progress is being made.  Discovery of self takes place every day. 

However, I am impatient with the waiting at this very moment.  Probably because I can now check my balance on line each day if I want to. 

I'm about to start the busiest week of my life.  Studying and volunteering and working for a week straight will mean I have just enough energy at the end of the day to sleep and start again.

Next payment amount scheduled for my debt is $865.50 + the amount of extra money I made last week.

  1. I am VERY impatient myself... even though I have a lot of steps left (somewhere in the realm of 1.5 years +). I just try to not focus on how much there is left by looking at where I was last year. That usually keeps me distracted long enough to drop the topic!
