So we sit in indecision. We wait for certainty before we commit. But certainty doesn’t come from thinking about a project. It comes from being inside a project.

My friend, the project is the way.

It’s disorienting that I don’t really have the experience of “choosing” anymore. It’s also hard to even really imagine the old way of being, which involved mentally simulating some future existence I might want to have, and then mentally flailing against the present moment in a futile effort to drag myself towards that imagined future.

The best tools amplify us. They meet us where we are and keep up with us as we grow.

Scarcity is, we don’t have what we need, and so there’s a way of thinking that’s like, in that moment in time, you felt a need and you kind of threw a container at it.
