Are you like a moth being attracted to the bug zapper?  You can’t look away and you keep going towards the one thing that is attracting you, yet in the end it will end up killing you?  Okay, so maybe the thing you keep doing won’t kill you, but if it’s setting you up constantly for disaster then the result is just about the same.

Stop going in a direction with your life that is meaningless.  Start taking control of your actions.  Don’t get caught in the bug zapper.

How do you know if you are on a crash course with the bug zapper?

  1. Do you hit snooze 3-4 times because you don’t want to get out of bed?
  2. Are you constantly late for work (because you don’t want to be there)?
  3. Are you doing just enough to get by and not get fired?
  4. When you get home do you eat and then find your cozy spot on the couch to watch your evening away until it’s time to go to bed and start the cycle again?

If this is your life, then you are on your way to the bug zapper.  You are being pulled in the direction of misery.  It’s time for you to start a new course.  It’s time for you to look the other way.  Start to change your course in life by starting to change your decisions.

Decide that you will get up the first time the alarm goes off.  Decide you will get to work on time and decide that while you are there you will put in more effort than you had previously.  Then if you need to, decide to start searching for a new career path or a new way in life.

It’s never too late to avoid your bug zapper.  At every moment you can decide to change your course.  You are always in power of you, but too many times we let all the things that glitter take control of our life.  Pull the plug on the bug zapper once and for all!  Decide today that you will improve your life one step at a time, after all “a life worth living is worth living well”.
