Coined by my friend Garrick this morning, a concept I plan to try to practice more of this year…
Unreasonable Optimism.
A defense against the reasonable pessimism I, and I’m sure too many others, feel these days. An intentional striving for a change in perspective.

The first day of the new year begins with some rituals…
- Swap out my Daily Log (Hobonichi Techo) to the next for the new year. Write my word of the year at the beginning of each month.
- Order my DayOne book.
- Prep the beans and veggies for Black Eyed Peas and Cabbage later today (I make mine Vegetarian).
