Bathroom Goals

It’s the freelance meditation & enlightenment trip —and it happens while you brush your teeth. Finding your center for the day if you will.

The other morning I was calmly scrubbing away at my teeth trying to feel and arrange the desired tone for my day. Full schedule, multiple projects, opening The Hive.

I say to myself:

Focus, grab one project at a time, clear the desktop.

I then completely focus and literally start whispering to myself:

  • one thing at a time
  • focus
  • worrying solves nothing
  • never stop learning

This becomes extremely valuable if you’re doomed from the get-go like me and can’t focus on a single thing for more than one minute.

The last 2 are my golden rules really, worrying is bound to happen but be prepared to slap it in the face. Maybe even give worrying a swift kick in the ribs as your finishing move—FINISH HIM!

And lastly: Don’t. Ever. Stop. Fucking. Learning…and when people start following you on twitter, or maybe they actually find value in your hand-crafted work, don’t turn into an internet douche bag.

Cheers!

    worrying is like paying a debt you might not actually owe.
