Late morning on a Monday. For several weeks I've had in mind that I'll reserve Mondays for reading blogs and newspapers, and develop a sense of my focus for the week. Instead I find myself occupied more with office tasks like phone calls, looking at bills and making appointments. Maybe that makes the most sense for Mondays, I don't know. But I gotta keep some hot news in there too - keeping my finger on the pulse of the big political issues in real time is what motivates and energizes me, so I have to figure out how to make my Mondays a balance of doing "infrastructure" work and tuning in to the haps of the day.
My organization and time management are better than they have ever been in my life, but there is always room for improvement. If I can get myself working like clockwork - or at least like daily planner-work - I will soon be THE QUEEN OF THE WORLD!!!
One thing I do know I'm going to focus on this week is the idea of civil discourse. I have been mulling it over off and on for over a year, but now may be a good time to start writing more about it. This political contentiousness is coming to a head, and has to give way to something better soon - I just feel it. We will figure out how to fight fair.
