Hate reads

Have you ever regretted reading a book — which one and why?

There’s too much system collapse going on for unhappy reading.

Don’t like the book? That’s ok. DNF and move on.

Hate reading on the other hand: Tell me everything. Whomst, why, and wherewithal… Tell. Me. I shall be discreet.

There is no best.

What’s the best and worst airport you’ve been to?

There are only different versions of manageable, familiar, requires good cardio, and actively hostile to one’s sanity.

Choices choices choices

What’s the kindest thing someone has ever done for you?

A former boss told me the truth about a possible career, the realities of taking that path, and the various consequences it involved.

They gained nothing from this, but they did it anyway.

This honesty allowed me to make a genuinely informed decision, which in hindsight probably saved my life.

Do the thing.

If you had to give one life-changing tip, what would it be?

You know what it is.

You think about it randomly. It probably pops up once a day. A thought here, a sigh there, a quiet wish, a silent yearning.

You’ve been putting it off for so many sensible reasons. Except they’re just that: reasons.

You consider it and something sneers, “Be realistic.” But what’s so bad about making something real?

So, do it. Do the thing. Plan for it. Prepare for it. Put things in motion to make it happen. Small steps, baby steps, mistakes here, mishaps there, trial, error, shining success, outright failure – it’s all part of the process. And yes, trust the process. It’s forward motion.

You’re thinking about it right now, aren’t you.

So, take that first step. One, two, four, seven, and suddenly you’re walking.
