No phone.

And it's challenging at first, because you want to be consuming something, even if it's educational, valuable, still.

Right?

No phone.

Solitude.

Think about life.

Think about who you are.

Think about what you've always wanted and where your current reality aligns.

Think about how much you have and how lucky you are.

Think about any or all of these things, but think.

Let your mind go where amidst the push and pull of life, you don't often let it wander.

For example, some thoughts from my walk today, some of it random sporadic noise, some of it more valuable than others, but all of it valuable because the process in its entirety is valuable.

You know, I spent some time thinking about the week ahead, the things I'm excited about and how to prepare for them and realized one of them I didn't want to do.

Then had that debate with myself.

Well, do I not want to do it because it doesn't align with my goals or because it makes me uncomfortable?

Came to the conclusion that I think it's the latter.

So it's staying in my schedule, but I'll reassess.

I thought about Florida.

I consistently think about how lucky I am to be down here after living in so many cold places.

It's just such a beautiful environment and, you know, one that I don't take for granted.
