			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Are you doing anything that seems to be futile?  Are you chasing after the wind?</strong></p>
<p>You&#8217;ll never catch the wind.  The wind will always escape you, guaranteed.  But why do you chase after it then?  Your approach is a losing one form the get-go!</p>
<p><strong>Ok&#8230;now apply this to your life&#8230;</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>What are you doing that is futile, that&#8217;s like chasing after the wind?</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>How many hours have you wasted surfing the web or doing things on the computer that turned out to be a complete waste of time?</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>What things are you doing based on an entirely flawed concept or way of thinking?  Step out of the picture and re-evaluate.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Are your efforts doomed before they even start?  Then you probably need to make bigger and deeper changes than you think or want to.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Are you Daily Wasting Your Time?</strong></p>
<p>I did&#8230;today!  I tried to get all sorts of stuff done and I didn&#8217;t seem to make a dent.  So you know what I did?  I decided to blog about it.  And I used it to inspire me to create something that will one day make it worth my while.</p>
<p>I also tried to learn all the lessons to do it better next time, so I wouldn&#8217;t be chasing after the wind in the first place.  I hope you do the same!</p>]]></content:encoded>
