Writing things down, the lists, help me to move on with goals and thoughts. Otherwise, they are like a hamster on a wheel in my head.
I need to write things down so I can get it out of my head. Otherwise they are like a hamster on a wheel in my head too!
And things aren't real for me till it is on a list. This whole P thing - has been a peripheral amorphous thing on the side... If I want a P in my life - I need to define what I want more tangibly. I need to make it a goal - or I will not be receptive to it. And SuperDad was right - I will always find "other" things to keep me busy.

A day can make so much difference. My wish list from yesterday - first time I put that out there - has already started taking a different form.
Your list gave me the courage to add a P to my list. I haven't gone back to look at it again - this is one scary list. I have avoided P goals with a vengence these past 5 years.

Sometimes I wonder if I know myself at all. Or maybe it's the environment that shifts, so I adapt. Yeah, that's the ticket.
You come across as having a strong core personality when I read your posts. The other stuff is suppose to shift and adapt - isn't it?

Your writing strikes me as being so easy for you. The thoughts just flow, cohesive. It would take me hours to write what you put out in minutes.
I see your posts as very to the point and so organized. You can see the wisdom immediately.
Every word I write off the BB is written with a view that it may be litigated someday. It is exhausting for me. I write concise - to the point - stuff in the real word. Not a single extra word. No emotion. It is all written with a very specific purpose.
Here I rarely edit or correct. I just free flow whatever is in my head - unfiltered. I feel like I am rambling w/o focus. I write to get it out of my head so I can move on in my real life.

Verbalizing is much easier for me.
It is the opposite for me. I am a good public speaker - but I approach speaking like you approach writing.
You have a gift if you can speak your thoughts w/o requiring editing. That is a good thing in R's. I feel like I have to edit so much - that I end up saying nothing for fear of saying the wrong thing...
Maybe software to transcribe your words while you journal may work for you. I understand some of those programs have come a long way.

What am I babbling about??
I don't think you are babbling. It was all very too the point.
