Are you managing your energy well and using it for things that matter? Do you stop to recharge before you push yourself to critically low levels? Unplug to recharge.

I didn’t have the foresight to write something earlier in the week when there was actually time to think about things, so now it’s time to throw something together in a panic before I miss a week. Failure theater, everyone!

I am, as I write this, out on a family vacation in a log cabin. Obviously, the plan isn’t to take much time being a hermit and putting this together. Not going to be that guy. That said, I do have plans here. The foremost is to relax. I’ve said enough on how things have been lately and don’t want to rehash it, but I’ve definitely felt my creative talents are running on empty these days. By giving my brain the chance to actually, truly relax, I’m hoping that helps kickstart things.

Second is to spend a little bit of time every day – likely in the morning when people are still asleep – putting ALL of my attention on destroying the writer’s block I’ve built. I want to get back from these few days stronger, more capable, and invested. Driven. There’s too much waiting in the wings. It’s time to roll.

And, speaking of, the kiddos are asking to play a game with me, so that’s all she wrote. Quick in, quick out, I’ll see you Dwellers next week with something better and, God willing, some good news on getting back to my pursuits.


I did, however, have enough forethought to get this done/in.
