Prompt: Failure and Success

How has a failure, or apparent failure, set you up for later success? In my lifetime I’ve failed many times, and I’ve had many successes. There are things I fail at more than others, but the one big takeaway is that failure precludes success. What I mean by that, is...

Prompt: Is fate real?

Do you believe in fate/destiny? Today’s Wordpress prompt is all about a theme featured in one of my favorite movie franchises: The Matrix. Are our fates already foretold? Normally, I would say, no. Absolutely not. The universe exists in total chaos and we, the human species, exist entirely by biological...

Prompt: My most ambitious project

Describe the most ambitious DIY project you've ever taken on. Well, this is quite the prompt. Not because it's a complicated question, but more-so that the answer is the complicated one. I've been a sort of "DIY" person since I graduated high school, even if I didn't really know it...

Prompt: Would you ban a word?

If you could permanently ban a word from general usage, which one would it be? Why? I’ve been spending parts of my day reading other people’s thoughts on this topic. A lot seem to say or have the same train of thought, “I wouldn’t ban words, I believe in freedom...

Challenges

What is the biggest challenge you will face in the next six months? I think the most challenging thing for me will be establishing myself in a new place of work, and in-turn working through consolidating or otherwise lowering the amount of debt that I owe. Debt’s a troubling thing,...

Call to Action: Help my brother out

This isn't going to be a very long post, as I don't feel it's a good idea to delve too much into the details of the inner-workings of my brother's relationship, or lack-thereof with his wife, soon to be ex. But I want to put this out there as a...
