“Overthinking, over-analyzing separates the body from the mind….”

I am not on WA nearly as much as I would like to be, as I have quite a few things going on. I tend to get excited with ideas and bite off more than I can chew.

That said, I happened to pop in earlier tonight just at the right (or wrong?) time during a chat with Eric and another member, and I apologize that I interrupted lol. It was kind of in line with what I was already pondering, and I even joked that I thought Eric was talking directly to me with the top chat comment (though I knew he wasn’t). I did want to ask for his specific input on what I was thinking, but the chat didn’t really seem appropriate for that, and I couldn’t formulate my questions succinctly enough anyway. Besides, it’s not his question to answer; it’s mine.

I had signed off the chat and should have been getting ready for bed, but I really wanted to ask the question, or at least express the thought — so, here I am. The thought is important enough to me not to let it go tonight.

I was right smack dab in the middle of wondering if I should continue with my external WA promotional site (that I began when the bootcamp started but got nutso busy and have grossly neglected), or if I should let it go since I read in the Rules that we can’t copy our own WA content to our websites. I wanted to contribute in a helpful way to WA directly (eventually), and I also wanted to add content to my site that would introduce other people to WA. So, reading that rule kind of stopped me in my tracks and made me wonder where I needed to focus as it relates to WA-related content. Maybe that is directly addressed in the bootcamp and I just haven't gotten to it yet (?). I do know we can share links to content, but that’s not the whole of what I’m referring to.

But I did catch somewhere in the chat (which wasn’t even my conversation) about the WA blog post being like your journal — and I’m thinking that’s exactly what I needed to read and process, and I am hoping I understood it in the proper way. So anyway that is exactly what I am going to do, at least for now — this space will be more of a journal, as I have time, and until I get banned lol. Any “how-tos” I come up with as I go along, I will put them on my site instead. (And I will delete my fun Image Studio blog posts from here so as not to duplicate; they are really better suited to my site.) I was already thinking that the big players like Jay and Eric are already lightyears ahead in their stellar content (and of course Kyle, but that’s a given lol) and I can’t even touch them — but my little ol’ site can be an effective arm of the octopus (unintended Danny Carey reference) that might reach a random person or two who jibes with my style. Even when my style is all over the place.

Why do I have to Ramble On and get all wordy when I’m tired? I don’t know, but it is what it is and Welcome to the Journal, I guess. Lol — yeah, methinks I should go to bed. :)

p.s. I love this image. I created it in Image Studio for the blog post cover but I need to include the whole thing. Can you guess which Art Style I used lmao....

p.p.s. Credit to Maynard on the title, just in case he ever sees this. Thanks.
