I try to come up with 10 novel ideas everyday. I feel it helps me stay sharp and exercise my brain muscles, as well as reducing friction when trying to get into creative mode.

Looking back at some of my idea lists from November surprised me. It was such a long time ago! My mindset, my perspective on so many things, was completely different.

We change more rapidly than we know. Beliefs that were prophetic a year ago appear laughable now. Strong reactions to major events from last week seem small. As the saying goes, the only thing constant in life is change.

It can be hard to keep up with all the change. If I miss a Twitter browsing session for just one day, the world has moved on and I feel lost.

This consistency requirement forces us to keep exerting energy. Much like my idea lists. That expenditure of energy is what makes and keeps us alive. To stop is death. We are alive. We must live. Stay current. Think of new ideas. Adapt to the ever changing environment. That’s part of the beauty of this experience journey and this big beautiful amazing world.
