Stumbled upon some old blog posts from 2006/2007 and am rather startled and amused at some of the wisdom in those posts- “Don’t worry too much and focus on enjoying the path chosen”, etc. Started re-reading Lewis Thomas’s Lives Of A Cell. Felling overwhelmed with a sense of urgency- a sense of what I should be doing with my time, and my life. I feel that the most important thing to do now is to build a sustainable framework that will allow and compel me to do consistently get large quantities of writing done. I have no need to come up with any “new” ideas- everything I need is already either in my head, or within immediate reach. These ideas, as I envision them, should work together as a cohesive unit to form a blueprint for living effectively, drawing from a broad wealth of existing human knowledge that simply hasn’t quite but put together in the same room before. The most important thing now is getting a little bit done every single day- a post/article a day, a simple focus. I cannot take inspiration and urgency for granted- I have to actively make a conscious decision to seek it out, to constantly renew and nourish it, like a smoking addiction.

By the time I  ORD, Legion of Heroes must grow into a living, breathing organism as (n_n)/ has. I cannot do it alone, I need to build a network of support, a team of allies. Already I am already seeing fledgling partnerships form, and I imagine it will work out well if I keep moving forward. I want to have a readership of at least 10,000 people- I need to transcend the trivial and mundane. Contributing to the hive of knowledge needs to be my main, unshakable priority, and it needs to be incorporated into cast-iron routine. Become a fucking Outlier, build an epic narrative. Create value for yourself and others. There is a gap that needs to be filled, a door that needs to be opened as you perceive it, so only you can do it. Transcend, focus, empower. Godspeed.
