My Middle Son has told me on more than one occasion to keep my mind wide open and dare to explore all of the possibilities that this world has to offer. I thought that I was doing that ... until he reminded me again a few days ago.
Saturday afternoon I took my blinders off and I saw things from a different perspective. A few new ideas were born.
Which led to Sunday. I tossed the ideas out into the world to hear a little feedback. Interruptions ruled the day and though I initiated the process, I didn't have the time to follow through.
I woke up this morning and wondered why I keep doing this to myself. Why can't I finish what I start before I start testing new water again?? Oh. Right. It's because I need to find employment to supplement two months of unpaid summer vacation. That's why.
Then there is the "Twenty Seconds of Insane Bravery" quote that is taunting me. I know that I have to keep pushing myself out of what is comfortable. I know what I could do to something that terrifies me. But there is a cost factor which has me cooling my heels.
I'm not giving up on the ideas that were born this weekend. I am letting them brew a little bit. I would pursue them this morning if I wasn't headed off to work.
Twenty seconds of insane bravery. The email is written. All I have to do is hit 'Send'.
P.S. I hit the send button. I received this message:
SMTP Error: Could not connect to SMTP host. localhost:25
Sorry! There was an error handling your form submission.
If at first you don't succeed ... try, try again. I resent the email via an alternate route and I await a response.
