FINISH LINES

Thursday May 21, 2015


Waking to things that need fixed – suddenly noticing blind-spots, started but not finished, every postponed or delayed item.

Dents I make, so small.

I don’t have to go far to see things I’ll go through when I get time, need culling, sorting, disposing …

Strewn everywhere in my life – many forms of disguise – things I haven’t finished, I’ll get ’round to, waiting-on, for some reason I’ve long forgot.

For reasons.

Or no reason at all.

Old quote to the effect “a year after we’ve moved, we should toss out the boxes we’ve not yet opened”.

No time.

Can’t get to them.

Too busy.

Today’s deadline, tomorrow’s delivery of yesterday’s promise, finishing that report I’ve been dragging my feet on too long.

Simple solution: start fewer things

The better solution by far is: finish more things …

morning walk:  5C/41F, clear – fantastic sunrise, Gusta amazed how far I walked (me too), foot much improved, gait still ankle/knee sore/lumpy, but energy seems to bubble better without piercing pain. Not done, not finished, but much improved!

Reader feedback:

SELF-GUIDED TOUR

Thx for the book ref. sounds interesting … My oh my. Things come full circle. I have a girlfriend who was very involved with the Pacific Institute many many years ago, LG, Calgary, AB
