The Good Life - 12/06/2022 - Demanding of myself a good day of work *


I’m caught up and even ahead at work, which is dangerous as it’s tempting now to coast and be less productive than my employer deserves and expects me to be. So, I’ll organize a plan not just to meet but to exceed expectations, which is hard ‘cause I do not really care. That’s the toughest part—working hard at something that is fundamentally uninteresting. But someone’s gotta do it. And if that someone is me then I’m gonna try my best to do it well. Yeah, it’s Tuesday.



The Good Life Meditation is my daily recitation and reminder of personal objectives and principles used in pursuit of a purposeful life in spite of a universe of seeming indifference.
