Every Day I Wrestle With My Thoughts

It’s as though there’s a thunderstorm going on in my mind.

Every day I wrestle with my thoughts. It’s as though there’s a thunderstorm going on in my mind.

Thoughts about work, my personal life, family, goals, aspirations, and overall well-being flood my consciousness, minute after minute, day after day.

For some, this could be enough to drive them crazy but for me, well, I enjoy it.

It lets me know I’m alive, that I have a purpose, responsibilities to honour, dreams to pursue and goals to achieve.

The only problem is, which of these many thoughts do I focus on first? Which ideas should I go all in on and which should take a back seat?

That’s where the wrestling comes in.
