For the next two weeks, I am a free man.

For the next two weeks, I am a free man.

I am free from economic obligations.

I am free to continue obligations of my own choosing.

This will be the longest period of economic free I have had since grad school.

What am I going to do with this?
Tomorrow, I wake up super early and head down south of Richmond to volunteer at a week long youth Camp. While there, I plan to practice good habits: exercise, temperance, listening first to understand, leadership by example.

Waking up early to make rent is a chore.
Waking up early to do a job you dislike and that may actively make the world a worse plan to make rent is a travesty.
Waking up early to honor a commitment you have chosen to make: freedom

The following week, plan is:
Wake up as per usual, go for a run. Then shower and breakfast. Practice that habit.

With any luck, go to NYC to see a show and some friends.

After that, hope is for the new positive habits to solidify. And to like my new job.

We shall see.

  1. Ooh, I hope we get to hang! I'm gone next week most of the week, but I should be home Friday and the weekend, for the most part.
