Note the bottom-center numbers. Multiply that by five. Easy to calculate 30,000+ blog posts written. It was only supposed to be 500.

Today is a physical rest day because it’s Saturday.

Yet while i’m taking it easy indoors, there’s been some heavy-lifting mentally on how to manage blogging in Glacier this year.

And to that end, have been “exercising” Disney creativity, and thinking about blogging differently than i have for the past 15 years.

It’s an understatement to say i’ve been working hard on this “change”.

The biggest driver is to find a good reason not to stop blogging.

There, i said it.

Revisiting the notion to stop writing five daily, differently-themed blog posts.

Ten days

Tip of the iceberg.

The good news is, ‘i know somebody’.

The bad news is i have no idea what their day or week looks like.

Meanwhile, the clock and calendar are ticking.

Countdown to Glacier 2024, body

National park trail text updates
For the first time in 50 years, i’m seeing and hearing about mountain lion sightings inside Glacier.

Every Continent has an apex predator. Some have more than one.

Grizzlies can kill humans.

So can Mountain Lions.

One is not predatory. One is.

For now, it feels like my finger is on the ‘predator’s pulse’. Meaning, last year there was a mention or two of Mountain Lions in GNP. Before that, nothing. Now this Summer there have been a couple already. It’s only a matter of time before there’s an uncomfortable encounter.

Work(out) from anywhere

Save your best for now.

There’s logic in saving your best for last.

The crescendo.

Perhaps it works well in some domains. Say a book, movie, or song.

But perhaps it’s not a mindset for life.

Why?

Fundamentally, we don’t know when our crescendo is relevant.

Books, movies, and songs are scripted. The writer gets to plan the crescendo’s timing, intensity, and duration.

Life doesn’t come with a script writer.

Or does it?
