Decisions that default to no.

3 takes before I decided the episode was good enough. Also I pivoted between those 3 episodes dramatically. So that's a little meta decision making for ya.

Add or remove for growth

I was pruning my plants a little today and giving them fertilizer and it got me thinking about why we do that and how that applies to other parts of our lives.

One really great thing, maybe two.

If you want to do great things, you have to accept it'll just be a few.

You are responsible for your own success (and failure)

I prefer to be in the driver's seat of my life. Do you? I've written out the notes for this episodes like 5 times over the last 5 days, and I think.. I finally figured out how to say what I wanted to say.The Push/Pull article I was talking about: https://kellanem.com/notes/push-and-pull

We learn a lot by trying

An episode meant to be about experimentation that really did turn more meta, but still delivers the point.

The question to ponder more often than not.

I've spent my days recently thinking really really hard. Asking myself questions. So I thought I'd bring the one that most often comes to mind to the podcast more explicitly today.

The vision isn’t set in stone

Our goals are aspirations not perfect pictures. They can't be, otherwise they wouldn't be goals, they'd just be things we do again.

Supporting Hooks

Sometimes I just sit and breathe as I observe and trace the pothos plant in my house with my eyes. So today's piece is inspired at least in part by the pothos I have. :)

What’s even more important than communication?

Do you sometimes wake up with questions that are burrowed in your mind and refuse to get out? That happens to me sometimes. And today's question has literally hounded me all day, I've evaluated and thought about it every waking minute, and it probably shaped at least half the conversations I had today.

Some musings about fate.

We all have some underlying beliefs about fate wired into us from childhood. And I found myself think and talking about that with some folks today.

I'm back after being sick for a while! And today we're talking about honesty and how I interpret honesty.
