Embracing, Editing, Removing, Ending 

I invite you to consider this process as we end 2025. For each category, pick one, two or three only.

Embracing

Before each surf session, a dedication to having fun no matter what.

Anger as fuel, laughter as the ground, and kindness as the aspiration.

What life presents with acceptance. All of it. Which means even the stuff that is hard, painful and not desired.

Editing

Where I spend my time, towards doing things that are 80% in line with my superpowers. This means delegating everything else.

My response to things that make me rage. Use the rage as a bridge to an all-encompassing perspective. Stop being a nuclear reactor. Feel the rage. Allow it to ignite, yet do not let it rule.

Removing

Almost all extra stuff, photos, and memorabilia, down to the minimum. A box at most. Digital copies that are searchable, filed, and easily deleted with one keystroke. (Thinking of my inheritance.)

Ending

Night scrolling. Pick up a book instead.
