I Like Quoting Smart People

To live content with small means;
To seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion;
To be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich;
To study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly;
To listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart;
To bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never.
In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common.
This is to be my symphony. — William Henry Channing

Planning becomes procrastination and procrastination is the enemy of action. What distracts us? Distraction #1: Prep Work Before I can write or exercise or go here or fix that, [...] […]
  • Parenting 101: The Greatest Joy
    It is 8:30 on a Saturday night and I am about to gorge myself on good chocolate and books. I am full of resolution. I am full of cheer. I am alone with the hot running water, in a cocoon the color of the shower curtain. My library loot is stacked beside me on the [...] […]
