Inspiration
Ever notice your inspiration and energy to accomplish tasks seem to appear at the most inconvenient times? I mean, it's time to go to bed, but now my brain wants to write. I was going to get things done earlier in the day, but I couldn't organize my thoughts. I guess I gotta just go with the flow.........

Human Connections
A great reminder from my friend and colleague Rusty May:
Have you ever wandered into a coffee shop, hoping to find some human connections? Were you longing for that great collaborative energy, and thinking that others arrived there for the same reason.....only to find people hunched over their laptops, ignoring the world around them? So why are we all here? Did we come into this coffee shop, this office, or this world to just zone out and stare at a screen?
Don't get me wrong, sometimes I'll sit in public with earplugs in, blogging my ass off or writing my next book. But I also make sure I take some time every day to have real connections with other humans. How great would it be if we could all take a little break from our computers and have a round table discussion, or participate in an icebreaker-related activity? Who do YOU want to be in this world? Think about it.....

Live an Inconvenient Life
Here's a great reminder: "Life begins at the end of your comfort zone." When we are challenged and pushed into a new situation, we learn a lot about who we are. If risks aren't taken, there will be very little reward. So remember to live an inconvenient life, and don't just coast through your day. So many of us develop a routine of comfort and a pattern of repetition, when we could really be challenging ourselves to live a life of passion, adventure, and positive action.
