Exciting times

News headline LeBron James reaches 50,000 points milestone
How much is enough? Timeless question. Compelling question.
Social media post about the size of the cosmos
Challenging to know what’s true. Even if this isn’t true, the cosmos is still ridiculously, incomprehensively large

Can you make this up?

What?

Time to stop daily, prolific, working?

Gut says yes.

What about the blogging?

Gut says i’m closer to no than to yes.

And writing?

Nope.

30k posts club, home

wordpress admin screen
A solid 6,100+ blog posts here. Also, you can see yesterday’s published post, “No one cares about your blogs.”

One of writing’s big reveals to me is this…

No one cares what you think.

So if you want to write, know exactly who you are writing to. And, know why you hope they listen.

How hard was it to write that blog post title?

Zero hard.

Thank you divine providence for a home capable of allowing me to prioritize my priorities in any order, or no order at all.

Haves and wants, home

Mountain chalet
This was a temporary HQ in mid-September 2024. We had both rooms.

The saying goes like this…

We always want what we can’t have.

What if the saying was re-engineered…

We always have what we can’t want.

That reengineered sentence doesn’t resonate with me in any obvious way. Kinda like the way today’s blog titles didn’t fully go where i thought they might.

The “Summer 2024” blog experiment seems to have slowly morphed into a new style of writing, driven simply from trying to efficiently scale the admin side of the blogging effort.

Noteworthy: When blog titles are generic, like “Sperry Day One, mind”, the topic can be anything — ton of flexibility. When blog titles are not generic, like today’s titles focusing on a contrast between haves and wants, the title suggests you stay in that lane. This is a new discovery and new creative opportunity.
