Several things have gradually changed in me as I have gotten older. Some good and others not so good. The change that irritates me the most is my indecisiveness. I used to think through situations quickly, make a decision, and go to work to carry it out. Even though I made decisions quickly, I rarely made a bad one. I wasn’t paralyzed by a fear of making a wrong choice or of failing. Now I think about a problem or situation forever, and when I finally decide what I am going to do, I sit in my chair, not moving, almost as if I am paralyzed. I don’t think I get stuck in limbo because of fear of failing or making a mistake. I just don’t have that crazy drive that I used to have to accomplish as much in a day, a week, a month, and a year as possible. I am not lazy, but I am content with a much slower pace of life than I once was. Almost everything on my to-do list can be postponed without a problem. This change in me occurred about the time I turned 70. At first, I felt a great deal of guilt and kept trying to figure out how to overcome it. But now I have gotten comfortable with my old man pace of life. I still preach and teach three or four times a week, have half a dozen meetings each week, read and write a bunch, I spend a fair amount of time with God in prayer every week, and I always have a building project going and a fishing or hunting trip scheduled soon. The main difference is that now I do things when I feel like it, and often what I feel like is taking a nap.
