Grounded

How do we stay grounded in ourselves? I don’t know how you do it. It cost me a lot of cash, time and effort to get steady. I had to let go of hopes and dreams and create more realistic ones. Only after I’d turned up day after day, with a commitment to myself, to getting organised, to letting go of distractions and my natural proclivities to pursue escapism and pleasure instead of discipline. Reining in and following through. Determination played a bigger part than discipline. And then the magic happened.
