Reinventing Scott

There are a lot of things I want to accomplish in my life, and so far, I have not done many of the things I have wanted to do. (But, then again, I am super ambitious as well.) It’s easy to blame circumstances and the way things are for that, but in reality, in most cases, the reason why rests solely with me. What decisions did I make? Did I procrastinate? Was I afraid in the moment and failed to act at the opportune time?

I have accomplished many things and people are often amazed at what I can and have achieved. I think people see my own worth better than I do.

But its not really about what I accomplish or not, although that is important to me too, reinventing myself is more about living a life I love and living it powerfully. Living life 100% instead of treading away at a life that has no meaning for me.

At one point in my life, my life had meaning and purpose. And somewhere I have strayed from that. I let circumstances dictate what I did and who I was, instead of me dictating how I was going to be regardless of what happens.

“Never stray from your path or eventually you will be going the wrong way.”
– Eric Uhrhane

I strayed from my path.

I am now going the opposite direction and about 5,000 miles away from my destination. So I think its time for a U Turn. :)

So reinventing myself is probably not as accurate as rediscovering myself. In some ways I am rediscovering who I really am, after trying to live up to others expectations and following the path they recommended for me instead of mine.

I think its more about being true to who I am, rather than trying to fit into a world I don’t seem to fit into. And removing the internal barriers that are stopping me. That is where the reinventing comes in.

I don’t have all the answers right now. But part of what this blog is about is about me reinventing myself and embracing myself and what I can bring to the world.

And hopefully some of what I write will help you as much as it helps me.
