Omit to Commit is all about the resources needed to opt into (and out of) behaviors, such as time, traditions (individual or group behaviors), trust, and treasures. By regularly making and breaking habits, life becomes more fulfilling and satisfying. I’m drafting a book called Omit to Commit, and in 2024, I’m posting research/your ideas/themes on…

Why wait to write a book? Who, me?
I started a new “Why Wait?” series about writing last Wednesday about my goal of becoming an author. I aim to post every Wednesday, so today I’m talking about the WHOS.

If you’ve been following the blog, you know I believe in systems: automating processes to expedite progress, stay inspired, and move forward. Writing every week helps me tangibly track my progress.

Hello, friends. It’s been a while since I’ve written last. I recognize that. I could choke it up to a down server. Certainly, life happened, too.
