When There's Nothing Deep Down
My technique for creating my blog posts or daily videos is as follows:
Either an idea comes to me. Then, if I can, I take out my phone and record it right away.
Or, especially for blog posts, it's the right time to write—because I won't have time later, for example. Often in the morning with coffee.
So I pause and look for what's deep down.
In other words: if I stop all activity, stop thinking, stop planning, is there something stirring deep inside me? Is there a problem, an idea, or a new way of seeing that came during meditation that I could share here?
I always find something.
But recently, I may be reaching the end of a cycle.
My videos about life and meditation have done very well. I'm happy with my posts here, too. But I think I want to move on to something else. When I look deep down, I don't find the same excitement for these topics.
Let me be clear: I'm going to keep posting one video and one note per day. But I mustn't let myself get trapped by what has worked. The source is the inner excitement.
I have to follow my thread—even if everyone unsubscribes.
