I am not sure where the title for this post came from. It just sort of jumped in my head. I was reminded today of a time when my life revolved around writing blog posts.

WordPress was new and I spent a lot of time learning how to use it. Other people noticed and asked for help. A new career path was born. That was almost 20 years ago and that path has had many twists and turns. Still though I think about returning to the simple blog post.

Thinking out loud for the whole world to read. Though it reality these words will probably be read by no one. But sitting down to publish words often could be the cornerstone of a new disciple.

And a new discipline can be the corner stone of new life.

Let down by those meant to support it, this branch will not see another summer.

I’ve had 17,970 attempts at a day. You’d think I’d have it perfected by now.

Each day is a blank page waiting to be written. Will you repeat what has been written a thousand times before? Or will craft a new story?

The pen is in your hand. The choice is yours.

This is life. This is what you have. Don’t overthink it. Keep it simple.

Thinking about “vision” and “purpose” can get a bit soupy for me. I am not someone who was blessed with a clear vision for his life. Always been a more of a “make this up as I go” kind of person.

I suspect most people are this way. Navigating life without a compass.

This is not effective.

This is why we do not create a life that we want because we don’t truly know what we want.

How do we find our vision? I honestly do not have an answer for that. I have guesses. I have theories. I’ve read what others have written on this topic.

Right now for me it goes back to quantity. Quantity of action. Quantity of creating.

If my quantity theory pans out I’ll let you know.
