I spent a few hours over the last week thinking and reading about how to better organize and structure my life. The result of that research was an answer I already knew but had little motivation to actualize: Journals. The act of journaling each day can be tedious. I’m not talking 10 minute rule here. I’m talking about assessing the day and planning the next day, week, month, etc. I am going to give it a shot–following the same productive philosophy that brought me to the talisblog 2,652 days ago.
In other words, I’m slicing out a bit more of my daily life to be dedicated to a daily routine. Of course, there are daily routines that I don’t think about. I don’t see them as restrictive or prohibitive in the way I see talis. I shouldn’t see talis in that fashion, because that kind of thinking does little to encourage. Instead I should be taking the time to assess what I actually do and think on a daily basis and how those things alter my state of consciousness.
Tomorrow the journal begins while today I spend time building it and committing to the idea.
Some Thoughts:
- I’m not sure if ASMR videos are actually being sexualized or I’m just tilting at windmills. It does bother me that something fundamentally good and healthy is being made into something else for the purpose of clicks. It’s like selling an apple using a chick in a bikini. Just stop.
