Starting a day

I have a huge list of things I should do first thing each morning. Walk, journal, freefall write, meditate, greet the lake, set my agenda, check e-mails, get a headstart on work, sit with a cup of warm tea and watch the day brighten, tweet, facebook and now I have added another potential thing BLOG. I know how I start a day makes a big difference in my experience of the day. And unlike some of my more disciplined friends, I seem to do best if I pick from one of the reflective practices. AND I seem to do best if I accept I cannot do it all. Or at least I choose not to get up at 4:30. Today it was a walk with my husband who reminded me that talking about work can take the joy out of the moment. I still have so much to learn.

    Marcia,

    I look forward to your reflections, as you always have useful (and fun) insights. I begin a blog tomorrow, focusing on the challenges that twentysomethings face in building a lifeline between themselves and the outside world. I suspect some idea swapping will benefit on both sides.

    I, for one, know that the more I understand how to quiet the noise inside my head and slow things down, the more likely the work I want to do out there means something. I look forward to hearing more from you about this!

    Yours, Susan
