The Rules

The Rules

A work in progress … an experiment … an attempt to get focused, get moving, and get some things done:

1. Participate in reality. Be here, now. Accept what is.

2. Love boldly. Care deeply. Respond quickly.

3. Know why you do what you do. Know where you're going. Remember who you are.

4. Write something every day that gets you closer to The Goal.

5. Nothing's perfect. Draft quickly. Revise wisely. Get it out there. Move on.

6. Check email twice a day. Create no message or reply over three lines long.

7. Limit exposure to the distraction of the 'Net.

A good start; more to come. 

Remember: reading my list is probably a waste of precious time … unless it motivates you to make your own.
