Yesterday’s midday beach break. (Kind of makes surviving laundry tarantulas worth it.)

NOPE.
This guy hid in the laundry. In the pile of sheets that I CARRIED.
No one died. But I may not be able to do laundry ever again. 🤷♀️

I added my (published) reading notes to my blog. An effort to remember/retain and learn from more of what I read. There are ~16 books from 2019 I want to write notes for, then I’ll start on my 2020 reads. Here’s a list of my reading notes so far
“If you can see your path laid out in front of you step by step, you know it’s not your path. Your own path you make with every step you take. That’s why it’s your path.”
― Joseph Campbell
“This is the payoff for rediscovering your vulnerability: you and your own needs, feelings, and deepest longings are an integral part of all your important relationships.”
—Hal and Sidra Stone, Partnering
“If you are not in the arena getting your ass kicked on occasion, I’m not interested in or open to your feedback. There are a million cheap seats in the world today filled with people who will never be brave with their lives but who will spend every ounce of energy they have hurling advice and judgment at those who dare greatly. …If you’re criticizing from a place where you’re not also putting yourself on the line, I’m not interested in what you have to say.”
-Brené Brown, Dare to Lead

“Most of us think of ourselves as thinking creatures that feel, but we are actually feeling creatures that think.”

What we don’t realize is that systems are the undercurrent of any kind of success, biological, economic, personal — just like systems that make the world go ‘round, they’re invisible heroes. Documenting them and breaking them apart just makes the invisible currents more accessible. Hello, Goals
“We are all the product of our own ambition and effort, however we approach it.” from this piece on goals
I ran 4 miles in ~42 minutes this morning which felt really, really good. I started running in May and my goal for the end of August was 3 miles. It’s fun to meet (and pass) a goal before my target deadline (doesn’t happen often).
