It’s a new year
New year and a clean slate. Funny how we have to what for January 1 to see what is true in every moment. A new moment -> opportunity abounds -> the pond reflects the moon -> leaves fall on the trail.
Typically, I’ve toyed with a resolution at this time of renewal. Yesterday I read Steve Pavlina’s post about setting your primary focus. What I took away from this the idea of broadening the concept of a resolution. Instead of a narrowly focused goal like losing 15 pounds or working out three times a week he suggests that we look at very broad areas of life. An advantage of this over the usual resolution is that it is easier to remember and you can be creative in the execution. So, while I was out on a walk with Mary and Boykan, it came to me. The Big Outdoors. Spend time outdoors! There it is, no expectations of more, linked to nature and the weather, a place of solstice. Just spend time outdoors. So many of the peripheral things in my life would be supported by spending time outdoors. Meditation, photography, exercise, health, fitness, poetry, walking, connecting with nature, exercising the dog, camping, snowshoeing, landscape maintenance, bicycling, backpacking, writing, stretching, service.
Of course this means less blogging and participation in Open Source projects. Or maybe I’ll just have to become more efficient by not reading the “River Of News” that comes to my rss reader. That alone would free up so much time. Trade one for two – still one. How to get rid of the one? Still busy doing.
When a thing is done, it’s done.
Don’t look back. Look forward to your next objective.
