The Abominable snowman lives. Sometimes it’s a snow woman. Frozen, this beast refuses to change. Frozen behaviors. Frozen methods. Frozen content.

When you’re green, you’re growing. When you’re ripe, you rot. That is it. There is no stasis. When you stop growing, you start shrinking. If you’re not adding new neural networks in your brain by learning new things, you’re losing them due to age and shrinkage.

And yes, this snowman is ABOMINABLE. We must unfreeze and warm up to change, it is that simple.

This post is day 55 of 80 days of excellence. I’ve created an email list below for those of you want to be emailed the full posts written as part of this series.
