Your Time Will Come

I have a confession to make. If you know me at all, I’m sure that what I am about to say will come as a shock. I’ll do my best to keep it brief and to the point. I’m a morning person. Yes, you read that right. A morning person. After years of trying to …

The Size of Your Comfort Zone

I did something unusual this past week. I went out. With people. To a place where other people were. Now, two years ago this wouldn’t have been any kind of a big deal. You might also argue that, since I’ve also been working in the office for at least half of that time, that I’ve …

One More Thing…

Let me just do this one last thing, then I can… If you’re anything like me, you have either said–or more likely thought–the above line, followed by words like “Rest” or “Do that thing I really enjoy.” Not just this month, or even this week, but sometime within the last 24 hours. We’re all busy …

A Little Does a Lot

I’d like to be able to write 2000 words a day. This isn’t any knock against anyone who is currently doing so, it’s just not how my life is arranged at the minute. Could I write 2000 words a day, certainly – well, I’m pretty sure I could do it – but that would require …

Taking a Lazy Day

It’s been a week. And I say that from my own, personal, experience which doesn’t include the wider world and everything that’s going on out there. I’ve been staying away from that and, I’d wager, it was a good decision. Still, there’s been pressure to produce, even though, at the end of the day, I’ve …

Planning for Everything

So I sat down this morning to try and plan out the week. On one hand, I managed it, but when I sat back to look upon what my pen hath wrought, I’d discovered that with everything I’ve got going on, I’d accounted for every minute, of every day for the entire week. Most of …

Old and New

I know I mentioned this before, but this month, I turned 52. It was during that introspective time, that I started looking at what I was doing with my own time. I’m always on the lookout for new things to try, but I’m also liable to drop back into the comfort of something I’m already …

Six Month Review – July 2022

I turned 52 this week! You’ve probably read it before on the Blog, here that it’s not the age that matters (It’s the mileage, right?). Typically, what’ll happen is that I’ll get really introspective around this time along with the time around the end of the year. The way it shakes out, I’ve got a …

Easing into it

Life has been pretty heavy this past week and some change. So much so, that I’d had to pull back into complete self-care mode. I’d missed a couple of post here – which is pretty rare, and I hadn’t been doing much in the way of writing. This made the part of me that demands …

What a Mess

I can’t even remember what it was that I was originally going to post about this week. The events of the past few days have driven it from my head, and filled that space near to bursting. I don’t have the spoons for anything more than that. Thanks for reading. Be safe out there. Be Excellent …
