##### Prescription
Holy butt i didn't realize how emotionally / creatively exhausted I am

###### Emotionally
Be more vulnerable with my brothers - be more honest about what you're trying to do.

###### Creatively
A writing habit would help - and refinding my muse. 

Getting the personal brand would be key. Let's not worry overmuch about that but let's still do it
- [ ] Learn some writing frameworks
- [ ] Start writing (put it on machinaeexdeo.com for now is fine with a crosspost)
- [ ] Update the headshot + refine the linkedin
- Pray more, man. Just be with God. Take some adoration time with Noelle, too, on Sundays or long days where you aren't sure what to do.

Demotivated. Why am I doing what I'm doing?
To bring glory to God.
How can I bring glory to him right now?
By doing forthright and doing what I said I'm going to do.








The thing I need most right now is clarity - this is something that can be practiced, largely by simply being forthright with my speech. Talking to people. being open and honest. To that effect, getting the blog going will be a good idea. There are things to talk about - through they do not need to be particularly profound. 

"Pause button" is a really interesting topic for me. Freezing something in place to better analyze it. "Can you push pause on your life - for a moment?"

Actionable tomorrow:
 - [ ] Get a working (hidden, not published) thesis
 - [ ] Study *one* effectual LinkedIn poster
 - [ ] Write at least *one* post in their style

Prompts:
- A challenge that was overcome and how you overcome it was deifying
- A particular design revealing something more fundamental about the structure of the world
- A learning moment in your day that helped you grow closer to God
- A use of a technology that is really positive
	- Misuses are OK, but should not be a focus - don't start here
		- A way to tech fast is a positive

This is such a wonderful way to advance in virtues - clarity and thankfulness most notably.
