Highlights: A decent morning meditation and dog walk. Blinds installation in the guest room—Roomba cleaning. Solar-powered fan to the EU changing area as an enhancement to my effort to manage the sun's heat. Weeding in the backyard. Writing (one of my best efforts in quite a while). I perusedsome of Tom Patterson's writings for insight into his character and timeline/history. Listened to Bill Maher and Ann Patchett.
Insights: I don't want to jinx it by making any premature declaration, by not allowing me sufficient time to have enough experience under my belt to realize the the fit is wrong, but a recent change in my approach to managing my time and attention seems to be making a difference. A good one. Like, my time on the computer is more focused and less, well, just plain less. The things I am putting time against feel more rewarding and decisive. More of a conscious priority. I plan to continue this "practice" and see in another week or two what other goals seem a step or two closer and if the things I let go of in order to move in the direction my greater interests and passions lead me end up being quickly forgotten. Or resolved without me. As most will.
