June 6
Plan? No Plan? Deadline? No Deadline? Commitment.....
Flexibility
Could just be the season that we're coming out of but, I really didn't feel like doing anything Jan-Apr. It was dark, gray and cold most of the time in Tokyo. Starting this blog seems to have caused me to WANT TO get out and increase my activity. I don't want to get into a cycle where I feel stressed to come up with something just to have material for a blog everyday. I've been doing this blog everyday because I felt like I had something to add to it. If I don't feel that way, I want to keep myself in a space where I don't have write anything. Flexibilty....
I prefer the "childs-play" kind of vibe. I think I can create flow more easily like that.
