day 13 prompt ... When it comes to aspirations, it’s not about ideas. It’s about making ideas happen. What’s your next step? (- Author: Scott Belsky)

precursor to mini-epiphany, perhaps ... i saw this prompt and thought, "oh shit! there goes my stream-of-consciousness. i know it's something about this "apprenternship" idea in my head and sketched out on crazy-papers, but i can't quite ... grasp ... what ... it's about."
environmental professional development ... back in 1994 during my crazy-paper epiphany time, which i described in my day 1 prompt for my 2010 word of reconnect, i left corporate america for something - something that was still me and something that was not in that building. loved most of the people, liked many others, and a few were a bit nails-on-chalkboard & chew-on-foil for me, however, i saw how my mission, vision, values did not quite mesh with that setting, so i left to leave and to create my own path. that was fun. fast-forward to this decade - back in a cubeopolis setting and around people who do share the mission, vision, and values - at least i'd like to think so.
- what’s your next step? well, perhaps not perceived as a "tangible" step, but it is to me - i have to hone my message. it's just bubbling around and swirling.
this morning was a complete surprise to me - i wrote this other blog post that's my mini-rant-rave-pseudo-ah-ha moment. so as i stated in the other post -

task for the day:... and crazy paper time is just around the corner for me ... this means that an action plan, mission, vision, values, legacy defining, late nights being the mad-scientist around this ... is coming to fruition. crazy paper makes it happen for me, and i take crazy paper and look to make it happen around me!

(thanks for letting me share your time!)
I think you make a ton of stuff happen every day, Shirl. You just do it in a nonlinear and super-fast way. This post makes me like/love you even more than I already did. What is "Crazy Paper"? Does that mean what I think it means? UHHHHH.. CLEAN YOUR OFFICE CHANGE YOUR LIFE...
