In the past year or so, I've noticed something.
If I've committed to something and am in the car, on my way to doing it, and I start thinking that I want to turn back and go home - I'm doing the right thing.
If I start thinking there's nothing in it for me, the reverse will be true.
And if I suspect an upcoming experience will be boring and pointless, most likely it will be very important and fulfilling.
The reverse of that quiet inner voice of intuition - it's the booming and convincing voice of self-sabotage. Why that is I can't say.
I can only say that I dragged my feet to the beach on Friday for the kick-off meeting of surf mamas at Venice Beach and considered blowing it off continually - until I got there. And then I was very happy I went.
Four moms showed up, and one dad. Plus three little girls and Ashton. Two moms brought their boards and it was clear - this thing is gonna work.
There's even a picture.
Enjoy.
I think your group is kind of ridiculously cool. I think should have (maybe pay or do trade with) Joel Barron as your babysitter, surf instructor and pediatrician. You have met Joel, I assume, through Richard?
