Big IdeasMe, along with everyone else in the universe are really going to have to get over this.
That term "I'm my own worst enemy" [ ala Pink]...well, I wouldn't take it so far. But what is the one thing that can make a person avoid thinking? Knowing that you have big ideas. Great big ones, that are generally more complex that others, that can give you headaches, that people can disagree with, that can label you, that can change the world...
I read blogs all the time that say "I really need to blog more, I really don't feel like writing".
Look B, that's just not true, you just suffer from a case of the Big Ideas.
When you have Big Ideas, not only do you have Big Plans for them, but you have to try and decide how they balance with say- doing laundry, buying groceries, going on dates if you're that lucky.
To the person that suffers from Big Ideas, all of these things only help to garner more ideas, that will either complicate your original idea, or add to it.....this...complicating your original idea.
By this point, I'm bothered by how many times I've used the word "idea".
It's not so much the idea as the expectation that comes associated with it. You start with what I'd like to describe as idea paranoia. You wonder if people are wondering what you're going to wonder next. You try to top your last idea with the "next" idea. You get scared that the next idea will be your last good idea.
Your brain dies.
So, for the betterment of a more perfect society, and the posterity of my brain, I am going to try to consistently bombard this blog with as many small ideas as I can. I need to get them out, I need to learn to think smaller, I need to get through the line in whole foods without thinking of some random social reform. And if I don't [learn how to do that] I'm going to have problems with myself later that will impede my world-changing qualities.
Therefore I bring you: "
rat eating a white girl" [ with a pee pee if you look close enough].
More to come.
