WE DO WHAT’S IMPORTANT TO US

For me to feel success when writing it has to be a daily ordeal. It's like a rhythm that helps me move through the world. When I lull it's like missing that 8th day exercising during a New Years resolution. You think "it's just one day, I'll start again tomorrow." Then it's May and your fat ass is pouring a five pound bag of sour patch kids straight down your gullet. My fat ass. My gullet. I love those things.

So while it feels like I lack the time today, I'll be pushing to keep writing daily because daily matters.

Daily matters but it also brings up an interesting dilemma. In today's throwaway society how do I write everyday but still allow the content to live longer than one day? I understand I don't have to share it the day of but to be honest, that's the part that makes it count. The send. Writing it and not pushing it out is like climbing the stairs to the diving board, walking to the end and then turning around and walking all the way down. Only a savage or scared ass toddler would do that.

What I have landed on is a weekly recap. Simple. Not overwrought with BS. Only trying to sell you a few things (maybe) but a recap of what I wrote this week.

Sign up for the email. That's where I'll send it. I'll drop a link to that. Or it should come up anytime you open patrickfellows.com

Today's lesson. You can fit in what you want to your days (here comes the sick brag).

Woke up today. Wrote, coached, ran 10 miles, had super productive work meetings and then drove my daughter and I to Houston for a show. I'm completing this on the way into the venue. These things were important. So they got done.

Have a great Friday

We make time to do the things that are important to us.

Here's to a good week of minimal excuses.
