Revolutionary geekery and melodramatic reflections on perpetual learning and other pathways to peace

Twenty Questions.

What do you wish to complete?

Jamie Ridler asks:

What do you wish to complete?

When answering this question, I notice how many of my current projects aren’t so much asking for completion, but for the establishment of a practice. Each completed step is just progress, but nothing to hold on to; nothing that would give me permission to let go.

  3. The book ‘Branded’

Completing things creates room for new things to emerge.
