Let's try this again. See how long we can keep it up!
Where I am:
Well, since I'm at the same physical place I was yesterday, and the day before, let's check where I'm at emotionally.
Anxious, honestly, right here in the chest. Probably because I didn't get to my 1 absolutely critical action item yesterday.
TWO THINGS I AM GRATEFUL FOR (SPECIFIC)
1) I am grateful for my wife, who, while at the game store bought me a copy of "Fantasy Mapmaking" after she showed it to me and I said, "Oh, hey I have that on a wishlist." She went, bought it, handed it to me, and said, "Merry Christmas."
2) I am grateful for my alma mater's alumni services. The director of Career & Professional Development is still chipper and happy to help me tailor my resume to every job I apply for even if I am stretching the term "recent graduate" a bit
ONE THING THAT WENT WELL DURING THE DAY
I caught up on all the weekly chores I have marked down in my handy-dandy excel spreadsheet. I've come a long way from emulating my packrat father. That man's clutter has clutter. Growing up, I had to train myself to clean and tidy.
ONE ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL ACTION ITEM FOR THE DAY
I really really need to work on my one-shot adventure.
WHATEVER IS ON MY MIND (IN THE MORNING)
Right now, I'm thinking about my one-shot adventure. I'm struggling a bit with some creative paralysis or maybe executive dysfunction. When I think about finishing it (it's mostly done) I'm filled with the aforementioned anxiety.
I've never written up a one-shot. It's a big change from running adventures for my friends. Big changes are scary and I'm already creatively insecure. I just need to take it slow and listen to my body & breath.
