iNotice a lot of things
iNotice a lot of things.
And write about how they help or hinder us. Five daily blogs. Each one a different theme. Each one a critical component to balance.
Like the fact that we race to get started in the morning. We race to get to work. We race to do our work. Then we race home to do the evening routine.
We plan on slowing down and rearranging our priorities at some point.
We forget that we are in charge and need to create the “some point”.
Someday is not a day of the week, nor a future date on our calendar. Someday is a lie.
But we are too busy to notice.

Will this day become memorable?
(photo: Not quite four, not quite 89. One learned to walk in the past couple years. For the other it’s impossible.)
A steady dose of, “Who cares?”
January 5, 2015. Will this day be remembered on April 15, 2015?
You know, the early morning part of saying goodbye to aging parents, the rental car return, the non-stop flight to Walt Disney World, the temperature change, the home inspection after being gone for 10 days?
Will the observations, conversations, fun, food, concerns, insights – will any of these matter in 100 days?

The challenge with balance
A recent Seth Godin post revealed he writes three or more posts to get one for publishing. He discards the others.
If you follow Seth (and he comes with the highest recommendation, because he’s brilliant) you know how extraordinarily different he thinks (and writes, and speaks).
And yet in his message – usually uniquely positioned in a way we’ve never thought of – we find ourselves going, “That makes sense”.
The challenge with balance, is that we do not have the luxury of spending three or more days to get one day of great balance.
This, too, makes sense.
