10 Questions That Sum Up Where I’m At Right Now (Questions Supplied by Chat GPT)

1. What’s taking up most of your attention these days—willingly or not?
   Still figuring out my relationship with online media and realizing how powerful it can be—bad and good. That and how I feel about alcohol consumption. I’ve never had a problem with it, but I just think I prefer good-feeling morning running over a buzz the day before.

2. What kind of work are you doing, and how does it sit with you lately?
   I started working in AEC (architecture, engineering, and construction) marketing in December of ‘24. It is completely different than the content marketing I did before, but it sits well. You still need to persuade, but it’s usually government contracting officers and less internet scrollers.

3. What’s one daily habit that’s helping you feel more grounded?
   It is a tie between running, reading, and journaling. Probably will be for the rest of my life.

4. What’s one thing you keep putting off, even though you know it matters?
   The buried pipe from my French drain was damaged by a stump grinder and I need to fix it. I know that’s not deep, but…yep, that. That and running in a few neigborhoods that make me nervous but probably shouldn’t.

5. What are you reading, watching, or listening to that’s shaping your thinking?
   I really enjoy Beau Miles’ films. I have for several years. He’s probably my favorite short film maker—more of a YouTuber, but without the sensationalism. All of his films just look like a great day—even when things go horribly wrong.

6. How are you moving your body—by force, joy, or necessity?
   I run alot. I’m currently running every single street in Tulsa, OK. I have been working on that since August ‘23. Right now, I run about 20 miles a week. I would run more, but these days, it takes about 15-20 minutes each way to just drive to streets I haven’t covered yet. That part is getting pretty old.

7. Who do you feel most like yourself around right now?
   My wife. Always my wife. She knows me better than I know me.

8. What does a “good day” look like in this season of your life?
   - Get up at 5AM.
   - Run 3-15 miles.
   - Enjoy about an hour of coffee with my wife (I can’t measure it in cups, my mind just doesn’t work that way).
   - If its a work day, work. If not, hang out with my family (wife, son, etc.), read, journal, nap, explore some place.
   - Maybe top of the night off with a musical jam session or a music listening party at a friend’s house.

9. What’s something small that feels like a quiet rebellion or personal win?
   Reading in bed for an hour before light’s out. Or a Sunday afternoon with no screens.

10. What are you trying to let go of—or hold onto more gently?
    Screens.
