Day ? : Returning...

Been away a bit, living the good old beach life...

But I'm back, and doing some housecleaning...in every which way.

We need that, don't we? Well, I do at least. And aside from the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser, which I am pretty certain can actually clean away bad mistakes we make in addition to scuff marks, my favorite mind-cleaning technique to date is a long quiet walk. I like to take walks. And I don't mean a ten minute power walk; I am talking about a three hour-no noise-no phone-no anything but your thoughts walk.

It's liberating and recharges like nothing else I know.

I know my last risk was "thinking big," and I'm going to tell you: I'm stuck. I am stuck on thinking small right now. Immediate. Logical. Practical.

In short: completely uninspired.

But that's okay! I am okay with that.

So here is my solution, or rather attempt at a solution: Stop doing. Do nothing.

Sounds like, well...nothing, right? Ever try it? It's a lot like sitting in silence for a while. Do nothing (for a day, mind you.)

See, I like to move, I like to do, accomplish...blah, blah, blah. But it is in fact nothing but moving. In what direction, I couldn't tell you.

Stop moving, start thinking about the steps you want to take. And then, by all means: I'm getting to it.

But for today, the risk: DO NOTHING.
