Why do floods follow me?

All this won’t make sense because I’m not including any prompts. Just my answers.

My business is so shallow. It’s not me because it’s not what I want to do. I want to travel. Have a travel blog. But not for money. But I live in a world where I have to have money. So I’m stuck again. I’m never going to be fulfilled as long as I NEED money.

 My audience needs to think I know what I’m talking about. I have a plan for that. But it’s not done. I am proud I did about 20% of the class this weekend.

I want to say that not showing up 100% in my business is my fault, but I’m exhausted and can’t do it anymore. It’s time to accept the truth. I’m burned out. I’m tired. I know others have their ideas that I no longer follow and subscribe to. I’m not going to be more for them. I can’t be.

No, my content isn’t powerful. Power isn’t a word I like. I don’t have a ton of people listening to me. So powerful? No. I don’t want to be the top dog. I don’t like the attention, and I hate pressure. Although I’m not sure, I would feel pressure if I were #1 in my field. But I know myself, so it seems likely.

Having impactful content (NOT POWERFUL) is something I can work on. As long as it doesn’t take more energy than I’m already doing. I only create about 10 blogs a year. That’s not much.


The Present Moment 

I don’t want to see NOW. I don’t want to see the present. The present isn’t always good. It sometimes is. I could ignore the basement because it’s downstairs, but it’s still in the present moment. Just because I don’t see it or ignore it doesn’t mean that it doesn’t exist.

I want to watch a movie every Friday night…except this Friday because I’m visiting my mom for 3 days. If I go there on Friday after work, I will be too exhausted to watch a movie. I think she has cable upstairs. REAL TV?? I will probably watch CSPAN. Anyway, when I get there, I will probably eat or just go straight to sleep.

I shouldn’t be going back home. Money issues. But, dude, there are always money issues. I’m choosing to ignore the basement and go back to my hometown. Assuming it doesn’t snow. I hate winter. Either way, I have next Monday (Martin Luther King Day) and Tuesday off (a personal day).

Last month, I watched a documentary on a topic I had already read a lot about – Jonestown. It was good, but it hit me more to see it than to read the book, which surprised me. I used to LOVE movies, but since I stopped going to the theater about 7 or 8 years ago, I don’t keep up with movies anymore. It’s hard to get excited about a movie in the theater, on Max, or whatever all these channels are. So I will probably stick to documentaries.
