Too much of a good den is a bad thing.

Sometimes we make excuses that make zero sense.

Sometimes I want things to be as hard as they seem. The reality is that I am making them harder. Sometimes I get into funks and don't believe I can write a blog or even function that day. The truth is, I'm bored, and not just bored, but bored and stuck. 

Any human needs to be productive in order to feel good about themselves. The moment they aren't productive is when darkness starts to creep in. I need productivity, you need productivity. Some handle humility better than others. I can admit that I haven't handled that well, even though I know it's the key to peace. 

Our hopes and dreams are one thing, but attaining them is quite another. Going out and doing whatever it takes is not easy. Ask anyone who has ever had to work for what they have, no matter how much that is. The difference between a business leader and the common individual is persistence and patience. In some cases your circumstance will test one or both of these. Quitting doesn't have to be down right giving up, it can simply be the failure to act. 

Dave Ramsey often talks about taking time to build things properly, and that the effort you put in plus the time you take to build will equal your results. I know that sounds like a math formula, but it isn't. Some people expect things to happen too quickly, and they don't want to put in the time and effort it takes to get the results you want. I  had a boss like that, and they are the worst. Others want to do things quickly and won't pay attention to how they do them and they come crying that everything keeps falling apart. You have to do both. Only you can decide the pace while balancing your time and effort. 

So where am I going with this? I believe that everyone has something they love doing and something they do for a living. I also think that everyone should work towards freeing their selves from employement into their own freedom with both time and finances. I don't not however believe that it is good to ever stop working. I don't believe in retirement. Retirement to me is like signing deaths document. 

A den can be your job and/or your life. Spend time in multiple dens so one doesn't devour you!
