“You get into a groove and if you stay too long it’s a rut, then it’s a trench, then it’s a tunnel. Just keep turning your head and looking around.”

True enough. Better to look around before all you can see is the walls have grown up around you. HapNuYr.

Hi Chel. I’ve finally decided to take an extended break in 2023, put my nose to the grindstone, and finish up the two children’s novels I’ve been working on for what seems like forever. While I’m determined to make that happen, something else has to give because I’m not willing to skimp on my family, friends, health, or community service commitments. I’m not disappearing completely, but it’s time to fulfill that dream.

This is an interesting quote because to me the term “in a groove” has always been a good thing. Like a baseball player who’s been hitting good for a few weeks, they say he’s ‘in the groove’. I’m not a baseball player, or someone with any noticeable skills, so this quote makes me think that getting in the groove can be a dangerous because it can lead to complacency.
(Happy new year!)

That’s the thing with advice: you’re always doing something wrong.
