Mindful practice saves me — and where self-assessment makes it stick. Mindfulness says: Notice what’s here. Self-assessment asks: What’s working? What’s not? Then I realize, everything is working. Then ask, what wouldn’t be working, and what would, and to what end? Mind going in circles, and shit maybe I’m overthinking as the Nurse always says…

08:16 in office and moving a bit slow.
Coffee helping. The Now, this desk and the meeting at 09:00… everything in between. Will need more coffee, for sure. $2.49 spent on coffee this morning at the Vacaville Travel Station or whatever they call it. More than I wanted to spend on a straight coffee, and I think they raised their fucking prices, but…

New business idea, and settlement on the drive to Vacaville. Day starting with a latte with Nurse and Oliver, reminding me again how fortunate my Story is layer over layer, and how much good is ahead of this writer. The last blog, #bottledaux, being made an agency. Content and messages, thoughts and drawing board activity…….

Saturday. I think. Not sure what the day is and it doesn’t matter. And honestly getting sick of tracking time, giving it so much weight and importance, so much pull on perception. Nurse taking a shower, me typing at the desk in our room for the first time in…. New tattoo yesterday. The most magnificent…
09:56 ::::: After a needed power nap and slamming the rest of the latte which I put in the fridge I’m at the keys.
On Page 8 of the Consumer Sales playbook. And the more I write in it, the sharper the correlation to being a writer, content creator Selfie taken t 07:14, I look tired because I was. Now, awake and about to try the new Nespresso pods I bought in one of my Amazon retail therapy leaps. …

06:34 Nurse already out, heading to Vacaville for an appointment. LoFi on, latte left – Thanks, Babe! – and now, peace before the day starts. Thought I’d want to take a nap, a quick collection of sleep, rest before the day taxied out but no… staying here at the keys. Olive on the floor next…
Memory…
Over a decade ago… Seeing the There to Here. Grateful.
Mindful.
Now. Where I am, who I am. In love.

Realizing now… What the character needs, is, can be with the right thinking mechanics.
Alive. Fiery this morning. With a new kind of LoFi playing in the office, Windsor, working at the loft like I
haven’t for some time. Nurse and I squeezing in a rushed coffee this morning.. learning from her again yesterday to keep things simple. Everything. What I can’t control, not anywhere in my conception or cognition, anywhere. This playbook I’m writing for SELF, first item to wake early. Be at the keys before 07:00 at the…
Moving slow. Walked at lunch. Quick meeting over Teams, at desk still and trying to think of how to
survive till 15:00 when I meet with the VP again to go over some new PPT slides. Started writing a song before lunch but only got four lines in. Keep moving, timing SELF to finish it. After last night’s concert and the messages from the Artists I need be more in that stretch of thinking…
