Wake Up Early

Turning 30 this year has made me reflect on these very thoughts. A new division of age has made me feel anxious, made me feel stable, and given me opportunity to consider what's next.  As I consider, this little blurb suits where I am at in my current chapter. I've always been ambitious whether it was to get into a party back in my hay day, or maintaining my first apartment and bills as a server one table at a time.  Ambition is part of my make up as a person and I truly believe it has served me well this far.  This note though, it pushes to make it further my own and really hone in, in a whole new way.

Maybe pursue a business venture I've had twirling around my mind. What about dance lessons? Playing tennis?
