Today's topic is Declined versus Reject. Doing these podcasts over an extended period of time has led me to reflect on how I deal with my own sense of progression. Day to day when things are really good. I find coming and doing these podcasts are fine. I can pick a word that I want to reflect on, and I can wax lyrical about that word. When I get busy. I tend to find that my mind is distracted. And as I only do one of these pieces of constant media, there's a there's a component of it that makes me think that I should be telling people what's going on and sharing what it is that I'm doing, because those things that I'm doing, if people know about them, they can either attend or if they know what I do, or get a sense of what I do that maybe they'll want me to come and do that for them. And that's even better.
COVID was quite liberating for me because I was able to be the best that I could be because the skills that I had in a world which meant that I didn't have to go out and put the attention into the physical and the effort of putting myself into a place where I can be sociable, happy, not too loud and annoying. And this is where the gregarious introvert phrase which thank you so much Hallidonto for giving me that phrase ... And that brings me to where I am now.
