Monday Motivation Cast if there ever was one. 🫡 Also a good way to tackle life. "As you start to walk on the way, the way appears" When I was in High School, being asked to decide my fate (that is to say choose my career path), most of the things I'd do through my 30s into my 40s didn't even exist. I'm from a small coastal town north west of Vancouver 🇨🇦 I'm the descendant of loggers & fishermen, ferrymen, & heavy equipment operators. I'm the only male in my household growing up who finished High School. I liked to read. I liked video games and computers. I didn't see a straight-forward path for me, or even out of that town, but I, nervously & with support of friends & family, took small steps on that mysterious path beyond the front door. Here's a glimpse of that journey I find myself on still...

GM! Monday morning throwback to a young Yerbearserker in his mid-20s, during my second year as an Outtatown Team Leader. For two years, I helped lead cohorts of young adults through an eight-month journey of faith, service, community, and experiential learning: one semester travelling across Canada, followed by another living, learning, and serving overseas. South Africa the first year, Guatemala the second. Part mentor, part spiritual companion, part community builder, part expedition leader, part logistics wrangler. These are from Guatemala. And yes @push- this was once my actual job 😂 $GMYerb

GM! I put my morning journal/musing/thought into the AI to see what it'd make of it 😉 Analog meets AI. Physical meets digital. Our dance continued. TLDR: Life is the ongoing practice of aligning our daily actions with our highest intentions, while compassionately learning from the gap between the two. Your note reflects on the gap between intention and behavior, and what that gap can teach us. Core idea There are three places to learn from: The Ideal The version of life where our highest priorities are clear and acted on deliberately. Our Actual Daily Choices The reality that many of our actions are guided by hidden forces such as old wounds, fear of rejection, desire for safety, or unintegrated parts of ourselves. The Difference Between Them The space between who we intend to be and what we actually do. That gap is not failure. It is information. Key insight If priorities are not consciously planned, our day will default to whatever internal pressures are strongest. Often those pressures are short term emotional drivers rather than long term values. In other words Intentional priorities require structure. Otherwise the subconscious runs the schedule. Tone of the reflection Importantly, the note does not frame this as a flaw. It frames it as how human beings actually work. We are both simple and complex. The invitation is gentle: Become a little more aware of the internal forces Move slightly more inward in understanding Move slightly more outward in action Do this incrementally, day by day One sentence distillation Life is the ongoing practice of aligning our daily actions with our highest intentions, while compassionately learning from the gap between the two. Practical takeaway The implied daily practice might look like: Clarify top priorities intentionally Notice when behavior is being steered by fear or old patterns Adjust gently rather than judge harshly Repeat tomorrow It reads like the beginning of a daily philosophical discipline, almost Stoic in spirit, but with a modern psychological awareness of wounds and integration. And the final line captures the posture perfectly: Today is another experiment in alignment. cc: @nounishprof @bribe @push- @chriscocreated @rphgrc.eth

The Empire builder offsite number one is officially over after a six hour adventure around Southwest Switzerland Coffees, chocolates, yerba mate 🧉, mountain passes, a little bit more chocolate, a lot of laughs, a lot of conversation, and a wonderful wonderful first time to actually get to hang out IRL   The first time hanging out with @diviflyy but definitely not the last 🫡 And of course, the number one conversation topic was how to help all creators and builders grow their dreams into their empires using the disruptive tools at hand today 🫡 And it was good Adrian has more pictures as I was focussed on driving ;) cc: @farcaster @gmfarcaster @nounishprof @adrienne @statuette @abram @dish @rphgrc.eth @bradq
