PROMPT: Pandemic
Daily writing prompt
How have you adapted to the changes brought on by the Covid-19 pandemic?
That’s so far in the rearview that I can’t remember. I’m thinking about the next one. It’ll be here before you know it.
I’m not quite sure what to do about it now that the CDC guidelines are to drink a shot of bleach each morning for the germs and take one bath in raw sewage before bedtime each evening for a robust immune system.

PROMPT: Unique
Literally everything about a person — except (conscious or unconscious) attempts to copy others –contributes uniqueness.
The only reason we are not each entirely unique is that we make active attempts (for both good and bad reasons) to not be.

PROMPT: Don’t Understand
The substance of financial crises. Not to mention Quantum Mechanics and Calculus. Really, there’s virtually nothing that most people do understand. Have you met most people? They’re kind of dim.
But seriously, the thing that has been striking me lately is how often zero-sum thinking is applied to non-zero-sum games. Put simply, people often believe they are in a situation in which every gain by someone else corresponds to a loss for them, when that is often not the case. Manipulation to convince people otherwise is in full swing. People are being led to believe they have to worry if others are complimented or are doing well because it reflects poorly on them, when — in fact — it does not (necessarily.)

PROMPT: Technology
Like everyone who has taken to using AI, I’m training my replacement. So, that’s always an awkward time.

PROMPT: Goals
Daily writing prompt
How often do you say “no” to things that would interfere with your goals?
In playing football, I find telling linebackers “no” is not beneficial. Words are strange things, at once infinitely powerful or powerless, depending upon context and will.

PROMPT: Secret Skill
“Secret?” To quote Inigo Montoya, “You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.”
