2023-10-07 Entering Stealth Poet Mode, but To What End?

Hey guess what?! Turns out I’m anti-social. No kidding!! Ok… so that’s not new news but I did a creativity workshop this morning and one of the bullet points staring at me from the barrel of that PowerPoint gun was this:❀ Opening ourselves to new experiences opens the door to creativity ❀ No kidding?!!

2023-09-03 Headed for BIG MOVES, at my own pace…

I put a lot of thought into almost everything. Too much sometimes and often to my own detriment. I might argue that over-analysis has led to some really great outcomes but chaos theory has a way of throwing off any statistics I might try to use to prove my point. Which is a fancy way…
