Best outcome

Think about the best outcome for each of the pillars of your life that are very important to you. For example what is the best outcome for writing? What is the best outcome for work? And then be able to create a weekly discipline where you are contributing something to the best outcome of the things that matter in your life

Heat
BY DENIS JOHNSON

Here in the electric dusk your naked lover
tips the glass high and the ice cubes fall against her teeth.
It's beautiful Susan, her hair sticky with gin,
Our Lady of Wet Glass-Rings on the Album Cover,
streaming with hatred in the heat
as the record falls and the snake-band chords begin
to break like terrible news from the Rolling Stones,
and such a last light—full of spheres and zones.
August,
you're just an erotic hallucination,
just so much feverishly produced kazoo music,
are you serious?—this large oven impersonating night,
this exhaustion mutilated to resemble passion,
the bogus moon of tenderness and magic
you hold out to each prisoner like a cup of light?

"There is no need to rush. There is no need to shine. You don't need to be anyone but yourself."

Wendell berry

"And so I go to the woods. As I go in under the trees, almost at once, and by nothing I do, things fall into place. I enter an order that does not exist outside in the human spaces. I am less important than I thought. I rejoice in that." - Wendell Berry

Emerson

"… I can see nothing at last, in success or failure, than more or less of vital force supplied from the Eternal. The results of life are uncalculated and uncalculable. The years teach much which the days never know. The persons who compose our company, converse, and come and go, and design and execute many things, and somewhat comes of it all, but an unlooked for result. The individual is always mistaken. He designed many things, and drew in other persons as coadjutors, quarrelled with some or all, blundered much, and something is done; all are a little advanced, but the individual is always mistaken. It turns out somewhat new, and very unlike what he promised himself."

- Ralph Waldo Emerson, 'Experience'

Flying blind

When you are essentially flying blind, are you reckless or conscientious? 

Are you at the knife's edge balance of both?

The ultimate self-help in anything

Balance and moderation.
