  • Accountability III

    Things have been going pretty well on all fronts for me. I’m happy and terrified at that. Mostly because I’ve started really strong on various things and then, inevitably I drop off. That’s what I’m currently waiting for, the drop off. I don’t like feeling that way but it’s been such a constant thing for…

  • Right Thing, Right Now

    I just received my copy of Ryan Holiday’s latest book called “Right Thing, Right Now”, I’m only a couple of chapters in but I’m throughly enjoying it. There’s a quote that stood out as I just read it and made me go get my computer to write this. There are lots of talented people out…

  • Accountability II

    I think it makes sense for me to make these accountability posts a series. Updating weekly feels very doable to me. In my last accountability post I laid out a few things I was doing. So far they’ve been working. The meal prep service is great and the food is delicious. I didn’t go to…

  • My Bubble

    My Bubble is about 36 miles. That’s the limit of my travel. Before I was 20 I’d lived in a different country, lived in 3 different states, and was (mostly) an adventurous person. I played paintball regularly with my friends, I hung out with my friends almost every night and had friends. As I got…

  • Clarity From Knowledge and Experience

    I’ve struggled with my eating habits all my life. I like junk food and fast food and cookies and cakes etc. What I’ve come to realize is there’s nothing wrong with any of those foods in moderation but the way I was eating them was an everyday, sometimes every meal occurrence. That is not good.…

  • My Word of the Year for 2022

    I’ve never tried to “theme” a year by one word, or by any words to be honest. I’ve never been good at setting goals, actually, I take that back. I’m *excellent* at setting goals but not great at following through with them! I stopped setting goals many years ago because at that time I didn’t…

  • Stoicism and Me

    I discovered Stoicism about 4 years ago. It wasn’t much more to me than a few quotes that I thought would show that I was a “deep thinker”. I wasn’t. That changed in 2020/2021 with the phrase “Memento Mori” or “Remember you must die”. Throughout my life, I’ve been healthy so death never registered. I…

  • 30 Day Social Media Break

    I decided to ditch social media for the next 30 days which is something I haven’t done in the past. I’ve tried to limit myself using various methods but I always seem to go over what I allow myself. This morning I posted a message on facebook that I would be taking a 30 day…
