You make some great points that most people do not fully understand. "You don’t wait around for inspiration… you set aside certain hours to write, and train inspiration to arrive on schedule. You don’t take every incoming call… you set aside certain times to make and receive all chats. You control your time, in other words." I like how you explained that. Very helpful. Thanks. Good post.

I couldn't have said it any better myself. The organization helps us have time and money for the adventure. The adventures give us purpose for the organization and routines. Ying and Yang. We need the pay so we can play. Those two activities complement each other. Good one. From the unruly mind of Darwin Right on, John. I couldn’t have said it any better myself.

You're right on the money. The turning point in my life came when I got serious about discipline. It made all the difference in the world. I look back on all of the years I wasted with procrastination and lack of focus and it makes me realize how much money I left on the table simply because of a lack of discipline. Have a great trip to So Cal! Eric Graham Excellent post as usual.
