Rome Wasn't Built In A Day

 
Sometimes it's hard to remember that Rome wasn't built in a day.  It can be so discouraging when you try something new and don't see the immediate results you want.  There's always going to be set backs, and once in awhile old habits will creep up on you before you even realize it.  The best you can do is be aware, keep learning, keep growing, and find a passion for the mission you're on, no matter what it is.  Don't give up!

Maybe it's because I've lived in an apartment for too long, and the sound of my neighbors slamming their doors and kitchen cabinets has become a big pet peeve of mine.  But, to me, her actions seemed a little rude.  It got me wondering... why do people do some of the things they do? After doing some Googling, it seems like there are many reasons for why people slam things like doors, cabinets, and toilet seats.  Reasons range from anger, lack of awareness, laziness, selfishness, bad manners, and lack of consideration for others.  I immediately did some self-reflection.  While I'm pretty good about not...
