Being weird isn't quite so awkward when you own it.

Yesterday my husband and I went to hang out in area that's a bit wealthy and had a lot of gorgeous, beautiful shops.

I had about $20 that I could spend. Not much, but enough to buy a little something that caught my eye if I wished.

There were so many things that I enjoyed looking at and so many things that I could buy. I felt like I wanted everything. And in wanting everything I realized that the truth was, I wanted nothing.

So, I bought nothing.

Trying to be like everyone else takes a lot of time and effort.

Sometimes not having forces me to let go of the crap I really don't need and focus in on what I actually need.

Sometimes being "nice" isn't the same as being kind.

When creating work to share publicly, sometimes my inner critic can get very loud. So I like listening to music while I work to drown out that unhelpful voice.

In love, business, and life, choose people who will support your growth and transformation, instead of people who want you to always stay the same.

Letting go can be freeing and relaxing. It can also be painful. But the pain of letting go of something old to create space for something new is worth it. 🌻

Some days when my body hurts, I need movement. Other days I need rest. Today, I needed rest.β™₯️

Writing research. Research isn't the first word that comes to mind when people think of fanfiction. But creating fanfiction requires a lot of research, from reviewing old episodes to double checking character names through fandom websites.

It's great practice, especially since I write nonfiction too.

ADHD hack: Felt some crazy strong resistance towards the chores today.

I ended up setting a timer to give myself five minutes to work on the chores that I didn't feel like doing, but we're bothering me the most.

Oct 21, 2024 - 10:58AM

Today the words aren't coming as quickly, but that's okay. It's an opportunity to catch up on chores 😜

Sometimes during my writing sessions, I don't write much at all. Instead I simply sit and daydream, totally enraptured.

Working on writing a blog post and fanfic today. And--🎢I'm never going to dance again...🎢

My current INFP Morning Routine...πŸŒ„

Mar 01, 2024 - 9:17AM

It's not procrastination. It's energy conservation.

Feb 28, 2024 - 8:13PM

I'm not sure if many website developers realize this, but having a good mobile website is also good for accessibility.

Since I have chronic pain, I work quite often from bed, sometimes while laying on my side. It's so wonderful being able to do all the work I need from my phone because I can't always sit up to use a computer.

Feb 27, 2024 - 4:32PM

Enjoying the day, writing alfresco.🌀️

Feb 26, 2024 - 1:59PM

Three reasons why I procrastinate as an INFP:

  1. I'm just tired and need more rest.

  2. What I'm being asked to do is either boring or doesn't align with what's important to me.

  3. I'm feeling fear around the process of getting started, so I decide to do other things instead.

When you have the Explorer archetype, others often try to make you feel ashamed of your wandering. Although these worries come from a place of love, they totally miss the point of the gifts that the Explorer has to offer.

I'm Not Lost. I'm an Explorer: A Guide to Seeing Your Path as a Polymath, Multipotentialite, and Renaissance Soul

Feb 25, 2024 - 8:26AM

Fresh sunny weather causes me to try to take on too many projects!

As a multipotentialite/polymath it's important for me to regularly declutter and limit what I'm working on to avoid getting overwhelmed.

Something about spring leaves me wanting to dive into new things.🌱 New things I'm diving into:

One thing I feel like is overlooked in MBTI is that each personality type is full of contradictions. Looking at the function stack of each type really brings that out. And to me, the contradictions point to how there isn't "one" self but many selves--many archetypes--working together within us as a team.

I think people have a hard time understanding that emotions can cause real physical pain.

I am crazy thankful for the Chef function of Goblin.tools.πŸ’– Over the past month, I've finally been able to move away from eating processed microwave meals to simply cooking for myself with whatever we have on hand. So good for my health and my wallet.

Nov 11, 2023 - 6:02PM

Just learned a cooking hack today! I had no idea that a potato can be cooked in the microwave. I did this with a small red potato. After stabbing it with a fork, I cooked it for 3 minutes and it was all done. Just mashed it up + salt and pepper.

Got a pleasant surprise today! Two cats were relaxing on the porch. One was gray and white and the other one was black and white. They were obviously neighborhood cats. I can't have a cat b/c of my allergies, but I love looking at them when they come by to visit.

Negative emotions sometimes just need love and compassion.

Analog Office is one of the best blogs I've read in a long time. Love this!

The pen I'm using is a Pilot Precise Varsity, btw. Nothing fancy. I didn't want to invest in something that I wasn't sure would work for me. But...I write by hand way longer with this pen. My hands don't get as tired.

Nov 07, 2023 - 9:42AM

As a lefty, I figured using a fountain pen would be tricky. I've found that holding the pen so that the metal part of the nib is facing my palm keeps it from skipping. βœ’οΈ

Nov 06, 2023 - 10:07PM

So many books to read. So little time.😡

Nov 06, 2023 - 6:34PM

Today my first fountain pen arrived in the mail! I'm really excited to try it out.
