But first, we must admit the truth. The calendar doesn’t lie. It’s brutal about how much time you actually have in a day to complete your projects. It’s honest.

Truth. Nice to see mine and Garrick van Buren’s Power of When get a mention too.

We drive through storms every day. We just don’t realize it.

Truth.

Today, we begin again. Always, we begin again. There is an infinite possibility in now if you have opened yourself to it.

I hadn’t. Thanks to CJ now I have. Solid advice.

If you knew you lived on the Best Planet in the Known Universe?

Nick delivers more needed truth.

Very cool project and story from CJ.

I made a folder on my computer called “Possible Futures”.

For each big plan, I make a new file in that folder, and put all of my ideas and research into it.

Now I can daydream all I want, not feeling bad that I’m not taking immediate action on this idea, because now it’s clear that it’s just one of many possible futures.

Neat idea. May have to implement a similar thing.

Ipsum is a journaling app [for iOS] dialed down to what’s essential.

It features a chat-like interface, where all a user has to do is type down what they want to add to their journal and press send, just as they would in Messages or WhatsApp.

The user interface is wonderfully simple and faff-free, but–since there doesn’t seem to be a way to back up, export or sync text written in the app–it’s probably best to think of Ipsum as an ephemeral notebook for disposable jottings, rather than a journal or diary.

This is totally the sort of thing I would have linked to on Minimal Mac back in the day. An interesting and simple approach to a journaling app.

This minute is unapologetically wiped out by the next. This hour is slowly, quietly, sneaking away from us, never to be heard from again. Each breath is a complex blend of somberness, loss, awkward exclusiveness, gratitude, calm, and opportunity.
