I’ve had a couple weeks now, when even though I know that amazing stuff is happening, my energy is caught in a start/stop stammer. The only remedy has to be clearing out the clogs and keep moving. I’ve been doing plenty of the latter, now that it’s week 2 of marathon training. Last week was already 21 miles total (up from 10-12 with all the travel), and this week will be 22. By September it will be more like 50-60 miles per week. It can get overwhelming to think about so I’m better off to stay in the moment.
Isn’t that always the case with everything though? Last week I left the house on Thursday to meet my boss in Toledo. We ended up on Put-In-Bay island that night, and I rode the ferry back to shore in a suit. There were more calls to make in Columbus on Friday. Better yet, my car would only start with a jump so I decided to leave it running the entire day, from 10a-6p. Better still, I had to drive through torrential downpours on narrow country roads most of the way. It was taxing, and it felt like a big bad idea.
The last couple weeks have felt like that stressful drive through the storms, with limited sight distance and malfunctions all around me. Surely I must be getting better at ignoring the glitches, but it has been ridiculous lately. I’m beginning to think it’s best to let shit break, let it leave me, let it go because it always makes room for something better. You just can’t get too hung up on the money thing in the meanwhile. Fixing all the neat shit you wanted then manifested isn’t going to break the bank. It’s just part of maintaining a fast moving current, or more clearly the success we asked for.
And so with my stiff and achey legs adjusting to more and more mileage, so it is with our ever-expanding vibe.
