And what benefit would you accrue from not having it?

So if you're feeling bad, make a plan

Thoughts on why and how

And what are you doing about it?

A hack

An update

Dealing with difficult people

Final thoughts

What a survival show has to say about life strategy

Going back to first principles and letting the details follow

We all are at times

Learning to balance present, future and past

How to get it back, and how to maintain it.

Designing and maintaining a website over time

Some unexpected thoughts

You're always either moving towards that or away from it

"I don't do that" is often actually "I'm scared to try"

And our health

Then do

Jealousy and appreciation for what we have

And what part are you avoiding?

Making your avocation your vocation, and other life choices

Using what you've got and making systems that work that way

Sometimes it takes less time, sometimes more

It helps to define that

But it takes a lot to get there sometimes

And the surprising insight about it

What is the right frequency?

Especially in those moments when you don't need to, but you do it anyway

A venn diagram

I think it's a good thing. Here's why.

An exercise update

A rank order

When you're in a funk

It's about disunity in the direction of the different parts of our life

And make a list of what those things are

The story of a shirt.

Thoughts about performance from the Beatles

Especially as a craftsman in today's world

More thoughts from the Beatles

Watching the Get Back sessions

Why I don't think of my mission as making the best possible spoons for my customers

A love language for yourself

They are inevitable, so we must choose how to respond to them

If you don't have a way to track, then it happening is an accident

And how fast it can get out of whack

Formatting and editing

Finish what you start

Instead of just reacting all the time

We need them

And what do you want it to be?

To-do lists and daydreaming

Setting up moments of calm and ritual for the future

So tempting

A mindset

Or, graduated stressors

Everything hangs off that

The importance of play and safety

Or at least survive it?

Some say not really. I say definitely. But it's up to you.

When it comes to your own life

And what correlates with happiness?

It's not optional. Your choice is to own it and do it deliberately and on your own terms, or passively and probably ineffectively.

You should make some

And is supportive of a good life

An examination of ethics, change, authority and growth

To your life and its possibilities

A template for beginning

There is no in between

I had one. Here's the deal.

And you shouldn't try to hack it

Beating the anxiety of the end of a season

Instead of feeling dated

You don't know when it will pass

In a number of ways

Particularly relevant for makers

You've got to be able to identify them and then do something about them

Almost there!

Good in so many ways

They haunt us

You've got to fill it faster than life drains it

An example

And other thoughts on getting back on top of things

And what you need in life

Some thoughts on doing that

Especially during the holidays

And do it right now

In praise of thoroughness
