One Down, Fifty One Remaining

This week is nearly done. Made some progress, nothing major or minor. Progress is progress and I made some. Not as much as I would have liked, but it wasn’t a wasteful week either. I didn’t get a couple of things finished and with outstanding commitments this weekend, I may not be able to get them done. Time will tell.

Earlier this week I read about the etymology of discipline. One of the definitions resonated and I’ve contemplated about it for a few days. It’s about following instructions or study or knowledge. With that being the case, I’m believing it’s time to follow the instructions and acquire the knowledge of those who’ve traversed the path I’m currently walking. Knowledge abounds, but applied knowledge is rare.

I’ve got to find and apply the instructions from others. If not on an identical path, a path that’s quite similar. That’s a task worthy of completing this weekend. I’ll do that.

Today, Friday, January 5, 2024, I am grateful that:

I’ll be finding a source of tutelage. Not entirely sure of the person, but it’ll be interesting to embark on this part of my journey.

I’m willing to be teachable. I’m not entirely willing to abandon what I know, but I am entirely willing to learn from others. Mentors, in person or via readings, save time and make me money, as I’ve written before.

Abe Newmeyer is feeling more familiar. An alter ego is something I haven’t used since my childhood and it appears as if it’s time to embrace one again.

Who’s tutelage can you follow?

Abe,
