Work Up To It

Work Up To It
10/21/11

So much is preparation
when wrapping mind around
what's wanted to happen
with things in place
to accomplish difficult task
whether short, long term,
where resources, tools, knowledge
need to be assembled
while asking pertinent questions
along winding road forward
collecting wisdom left behind
by those fellow travelers
who've made similar journey,
readily giving their expertise
about experience reaping success,
in end each person
lives with decisions made
for better or worse
judged by resulting outcome,
right pace without impatience,
listening small quiet voice,
paying attention gut feelings,
trusting intuition as guide,
minimizing possibilities for error
becomes mantra whenever I
work up to it.
