Jonathan,

This is my favorite line of this post, “Whenever you get off track, go back to your heart.” Don’t get me wrong, I loved everything you said, but this line captured my attention. Lately, I’ve been getting off track with my blog by looking at stats and then basing my success or failure on them. I realized I was forcing my writing, rather than letting it just come from heart. I appreciate this excellent reminder:~)

Love this post – this is a message that needs to be heard. We can get so wound up in the details of the journey, that we never have time to enjoy the journey.

I don’t think it’s possible to live in the moment if we’re constantly analyzing, adjusting, and planning every aspect of our lives. We need to exist where we are – right here and right now.

Life isn’t like a highway with nice, predetermined directions. It’s a river that we need to flow with.

You post reminded me of the a piece of advice my PhD supevisor gave me way to know when to give up. He obviously didn’t intend for me to give up my main goal of gaining the degree, but to know when to stop attempting a portion of my project that wasn’t gaining results. Sometimes we need to stop and find a new path to the our goal.
