How are you Navigating?
Once your time here is done, you will have carved a path through the space of possible paths of work. A path of what you worked on and with whom. A path whose contours will be the investments you made in energy, focus, devotion and hopes.
This path will be but a partial interpretation of your life.
But now, as in the past, it is important how you spend your time, how you use your brain and body, and what the accumulation of your energies might look like.
So what will that path look like?
And how much influence will your work have in shaping its course? That is a question that you are answering right now. It is a question that you have more of a say in, than you may have assumed.
Understand this. When your life is over - and should someone choose to think of such material things - your path will have been fixed.
Beyond you, in smaller part, that path will continue on in the lives of others. Through influence, or through descendants. Fading, and dispersing the farther we move away in terms of relationships and time.
The decisions you took this morning and will take tomorrow determine the path, its course, shape and turns taken.
So how are you navigating?
