Kicking the Tires of July 8, 2017

S R Janssen

So many tasks so little time and nothing gets done

Living like the White Rabbit, going down a rabbit hole with a watch in one hand. Late for everything and nothing at all getting done. “I’m late, I’m late for a most important date.” “Hello! Goodbye! “Excuse me please”

Can’t do it, give it up

If my feelings of futility result from a failure of imagination, working harder is not the answer. Perhaps it is a lack of effective systems in place. For a month, I plan to spend more time imaging and less time with frantic “doing?” I will diligently practice “segment intending” and see what happens.

Four Hour Facebook Binge

Generally, I spend about an hour a week with Facebook looking at photos posted by friends or updating my header image. Since Friday’s release of Good Omens, my thought have been pinwheeling with thoughts and ideas about Terry Pratchett’s books. Their various adaptions to television or film have all missed the mark. Therefore I had a wonderful time engaging in a four hour discussion with a the members of a Terry Pratchett Facebook group. Most of the participants were Brits; all were delightful. I dumped all of my thoughts, ideas, and pet peeves during the course of a lively discussion. I never have to think about Terry Pratchett book adaptions again.
