Sweating the Small Stuff

I forgot (again) that I had a blog. Marcus opened up his new blog and I realized that I have not updated in ages. (If you look at my blogging history, this is the standard opening line in all my entries)

I went through my old livejoural account and read all of the entries. 6 years ago I was a 19 year old bratty punk who thought he knew every. Today? a 25 year old not-as-bratty and sometimes douchey guy who still thinks he knows everything.

One of my co-workers gave me a great quote to live by:

"Be master of your petty annoyances and conserve your energies for the big, worthwhile things. It isn't the mountain ahead that wears you out - it is the grain of sand in your shoe."

With me, that is so true. I always let the little things bother me. Well, blog, no more...

No more sweating the small stuff.
