MEDITATION 3
Confident, knowing what I am, where I am. What has to be written. Simplicity, consolidation… opportunity in everything. No obstacles. In a meeting now, listening to the Market Manager speak to his troops. My story here, internet but human and community connectivity… my story is here. STORY, all caps, all ablaze, galactic and truthful, heartfelt….
This morning…
How I start.
MEDITATION 2
Somehow, wrote 8.02 miles, and an 8:08 pace. Unsure how I did that. I wanted to get out there, but just get out there. Wasn’t searching for 8 modified miles as I did, part of no route. And had no thoughts of pace, not one. Back in office now and prepping for 15:00 meeting with…

11:42 About to run… 5 miles. Now back in office and wondering what next for the writer staring at the screen knowing he’s overthinking and he even has a slide in his training deck that says, “DON’T OVERTHINK THIS.” Wow, he thinks to himself. “Fucking hypocrite.” In the writing booth, last cup for the day. …
Taking care of yourself is not an escape, it’s a return to the drawing board. When you sit back in the chair of your own Story and pick up the brushes again.
The world will always broadcast noise. Work will throw urgency at your map. People will hand you their expectations like heavy coats and assume you will wear them without anything short of amazement. Your power begins when you decide to set some of those coats down. This can look simple… a slow cup of coffee,…
PROJECT FOR WEEK OF 2/22/26 to 2/28/25
Starting with a meditation this day, the 22nd. Coffee at the Starbucks just down the street, light rain. 08:51, kids awake. The content, surrounding all things self care, the first pillar. Then, happiness, passion, doing what you love, the creative act. This week is going to change the Story. I’m manifesting it through thought and…
#professormikey on Self-Care 101: The Practice of Staying Human
Self-care is often sold as candles and quiet music, but real care is simpler and more practical. It is maintenance. Anything that works needs attention, and people are no different. At its core, self-care means noticing and responding. Notice when you are tired and rest. Notice when you are overwhelmed and step back. Notice when…

Yesterday, finally happening. Read the book, you’ll see what. FREE. That should give you a suggestion. Today class and later…
!!!!!
Indecisive, just being honest. What’s my focus, what is my subject matter, where am I an expert? Then I realize, too many fucking questions. Taking a walk around the office after this interview… Interview over and day slows. Meeting in 15 minutes, but nothing exceptionally pressing. Speaking for myself. Moving for SELF, my character now…
