Believe me, I am just as afflicted trying to get things right as you are. Looking for the perfect way to do things, deciding what to eat, how. Many comments on Twitter to grow my account, when to exercise. There is a script running in my head, I’m aware of it, that is constantly barking at me.
I have always been very hard on myself, people have told me so and I know it myself. I feel it viscerally in my body.
But none of these things matter as much as you think. When I slow down and ignore as much of the noise as I can, we are possessed of common sense with a taste of variety.
Adventure exists everywhere. For me, taking a new path in the local area is just as exciting as when I went on holiday in my youth. It’s something fresh and interesting and it makes the rest of the surrounding valley make sense, tighter, more intimate. I really do love understanding how things work together.
It’s very easy to get obsessed when we follow people whose online raison d’être is just one subject. It’s also frighteningly easy to become myopic, to the exclusion of a rounded life.
Relax. I’ve found it really works wonders. I’ve seen more progress in the last few weeks because I’ve learned to breath my way through things, being calm and focused and just getting the big, and little, jobs done. It’s a satisfying life we’re looking for and you can have it.
