Every second you spend thinking about what you don't want in your life is a second denying focus and energy from getting what you do want.

So that was that. Six o'clock, prompt. Every day. Read to young Sam. No excuses. He'd promised himself that. No excuses. No excuses at all. Once you had a good excuse, you opened the door to bad excuses.
