We see inspirational messages about how someone started doing something unremarkable but over time it actually became remarkable because the person is still doing the same thing.
In a Universe full of “i got tired of it and stopped”, there’s a chance that the arrival – advent – of the eighth consecutive year of writing five daily, differently-themed blog posts could be the start of something remarkable.
It never was, and still isn’t, the goal.
That’s probably the coolest part of the whole thing.

In this May 2010 photo (l-r): Book’s storyboard on floor, desk facing the wall, my first Macbook (from 2008) on desk, my last PC on desk.
Ever have a “How is this possible?” moment that coincides with another life milestone?
Not sure if i want to count down each of the next 28 days as this goes live (or, 128 days from now – as this is written). In 28 days i begin year eight of writing five daily, differently-themed blogs.
You get that what i’m writing today (Wednesday, November 25, 2015) stays in a to-be-published que for 100 days. What that means is tomorrow is Thanksgiving – and two years ago on Thanksgiving my first book was announced to the world.
Publishing a book on Amazon (and Kindle) was a stunning (and humble) accomplishment.

Yesterday (27th)…and today (28th), one day after another…
Why do i still write five daily blogs?
Good question.
It’s been six and one-half years.
Every. Dang. Day.
Five differently-themed blogs.

body
spirit

What if i told you i don’t know why exactly?
Except for this: It’s literally impossible to begin the day without this two-hour morning investment. As the saying goes…”I set out to change the world, when in reality i changed myself.”
Is it a lot of work?
Yes.
You know what else is a lot of work?
Spending a lifetime wondering about what could have been if we would have applied ourselves more, differently, better.
