Getting Stuff Done & Other Universal Truths!
“…And throw my dreams out in the street and the rain make ’em grow”, Tom Waits
I’ve been quiet for a while on @medium which is so unlike me, but I’ve been getting stuff done — What does that really mean though?
Stuff
Stuff’s a rather big word for just 5 letters — It’s a catch-all — A mighty mighty basket, laden with potential, opportunity and so much else.
Stuff is where many of my ideas start-out — Emerging from wherever they come from whilst I’m getting other stuff done — And then like one of the 3 Princes of Serendip, I have my moments of serendipity as I go in search of I know not what before finding it.
To sleep, perchance to dream is not for me for mine is in the doing and like Winnie-The-Pooh, “I am not lost for I know where I am. But where I am may be lost”.
Age of Great Acceleration
Without doubt in this Age of Great Acceleration, we are busier with excessive busy-ness and blinder than we think.
It’s a Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous world, with the boundaries between so many things in work and daily life acutely blurred and more than a tad confused.
But as I’ve said before I am one of nature’s Active Seekers After Meaning.
