Topic from the week: Feeling at home, or not, in the work we are doing and sharing in the world. To join a bunch of wonderful, intrepid folks, and myself, in our live group 🛶 3-Month Big Dream Program Adventure, application here: https://www.bigdreampro...

Feeling at Home in Our Work. Maybe that’s what we were always aiming for? This was a big theme inside the 🛶 Big Dream Program this week. It’s not just what we do, but how we do it—so that it actually feels exciting when we wake up on a Tuesday morning.

What’s my ‘Thing’? — I’ve got way too many interests 😬 For folks with too many ideas who can’t figure out their ‘thing’ to move forward with…

You want to make a difference in the world with your talents and ideas.
But you have too MANY ideas, it would seem. 😬
The world says you must pick one in order to proceed.
But you’ve tried that. Often. It always fizzles and fails...
Perhaps hear me out. 39min crash course here:

Great idea! And guess they don't have repeated characters I don't think, but Le Carré is pretty classic. A little more realistic too, I'm told. Probably why I didn't care for some of the endings. A little messy and unsatisfying - like real life. ;)

🧐 Care to share a pic of the book you're reading now? Fiction? Non? Poetry? Art? Education? World stuff? Biography? What's your preference at the moment?

I've got 3 on the go: Non-fiction: The Body Keeps the Score & Sapiens, and for my fiction fix: the Lucas Davenport detective series.

Hi folks, I'm new to BlueSky. Not sure what to post, so thought I'd just say 'hi' 👋. I'm Alex, live in Guelph, Ontario, Canada with the love of my life. Empty-nesters - the youngsters grew up and flew. I love my biz, the smell and taste of lime & coconut. Swimming in clear water's my spirituality.
