Irrational?

I personally think that we are defined much more by our irrational elements. Irrational elements can take many forms, as they are the times that we lack power over the situation and decide to put ourselves in fates hands. If we were to always act in our most beneficial self interest we would all be extremely one dimensional without any need to take risk and try new sometimes dangerous things. While I enjoy taking charge and creating benefits for myself, I feel as though taking chances and living life somewhat on the edge makes even more sense.

Contradicting myself

Everyone has contradictions. While we all work hard to do what we say, that just is not realistic. We all cut corners and we all make mistaken comments or take contradictory actions. After being asked to write this blog I have begun to question whether or not some of my actions match up with my preconceived plans. My most common contradiction is that I want good grades. To many this just sounds like a good achievable plan, but to me it is my most daily contradiction. While I am ready and willing to accept an A I am not ready to put in the work needed to secure the grade. As I work to accomplish my goal and right my contradiction I hope to identify and overcome my life's other contradictions. Thank you for reading this week!
