how long?

im at school, its only 9:00, and im already devastated.
God has given me so many chances this past week to redeem myself as a person, but i threw all of those opportunities away, and for what? nothing.
i couldnt further work on my chemistry test due to lack of knowledge, so i turned it in with many blank questions. i went back up to my teacher to ask if i could make up some late work, but the end of the quarter is today, so i wont be able to. he told me there is basically no possible way for me to raise my grade. what more do i say? i said 'thank you' i went back to my seat thinking, 'how did i ever say thank you to the person who wont let me make up my work?' .. inside i feel infuriated with myself, dissapointed, ready to blow up. looking at me from the outside, im blank.
1 test down, 3 to go. how long will i last?

i havent..

every day is another story.
-
although i've been telling myself to do certain things (mainly school-wise), i just never have been able to. something else would come up, a new excuse would creep its way out of my mouth, or i would just do everything BUT what im supposed to.

i havent eaten much
i havent focused on one thing
i havent been thinking
i havent listened to others
i havent done what i want
i havent been me.

Talent Vs Action

it's been a while since i last posted anything on this. i guess that every time i've been on the computer, i've been playing games instead of doing the things that actually are worth my time, such as this.

Person w/ Talent Person w/ Action
- i am this person (0) i am this person (o)
- i am this person (o) i am not this person (x)
- i am not this person (x) i am this person (o)
- i am not this person (x) i am not this person (x)

everybody in this world we live in can be classified as one of the four. a person with talent and action, a person with talent but no action, a person without talent but has action, and a person who has neither talent or action. the person we all want to be is 1) the person with talent and action. they zoom through everything with ease and has no problems. they are for the most part are happy with what they do.

now if thats the number1 person we all want to be, then whats 2? the person that we dont want to be is obviously 4) the person without talent and action. no matter how hard they work, they aren't gifted so there is nothing to make up for not working, and they dont work, so there is no talent to make up the slack. they struggle the most and look as if they fail. but that doesnt mean they arent happy. its just harder for these people to find peace.

so number 1 and 4 are taken. WHAT IS 2 ?! 2) is the person who doesnt have talent, but has action. if you think about it, 3) the person who has talent but has no action just doesnt do anything ! they slack off and let their talent rot, while those who do things just put more time and effort into what they do and that makes up for the loss of talent.

i look at myself and always think that i'm that 3rd person that anybody wants to be. i know i have some talent in me.. but thats the thing. i think its rare that anybody be put under that 4th category. many people in this world have talent and no action. it sort of makes them sound unspecial, but really, everyone is special in their own way.

now, just because you might be ranked something doesnt mean it cant be changed. you can lose your action and drop down from 1 to 3 easily. you can also rise from having no action or talent, to having all the action and talent in the world! be aware of where you are and how things can change.

also, you can change the 'Talent' category and put in other things. 'Money' or 'Imagination' or even 'Faith' . this chart is a good tool to keep in your heart for the rest of your life.
