Nomad-State-Of-Mind-2024 In the first place it’s winter and a good time for this nomad to check his state of mind. Details in Nomad-State-Of-Mind-2024-Bob Davis Podcast 1127. Struggling Secondly I find myself struggling a little bit as 2024 opens. Gut Check Time Therefore it’s a good time for a gut check. In the long run I like to run. That is to say I feel better when I am traveling. Staying Put Although at the present time I am still in the mode of staying put. The reason for that being higher fuel prices. Certainly over the past two or so years I’ve found solace in staying put and saving money that would have been spent on fuel. Beginning Of Change But we may be seeing the beginning of some pretty solid reduction in prices for fuel. Therefore I am feeling restless. Check List Even more I have developed a sort of check list to determine my state of mind. Mindfulness Equally important is the idea of mindfulness. Although a cliche these days mindfulness is important. Trance State The idea being we nomads might run through the same tasks everyday… and that allows the mind to float. Yes that is to say we are often in an almost trance state. Analogous to forgetting which route you took to work this morning. Or whether I took my vitamins… And brushed my teeth. Being Present In contrast being mindful is being present for all these tasks. Accordingly this is how we can also be present for the many interactions we have with people every day. State Of Mind I find above all these are important metrics to be aware of when it comes to state of mind. With this in mind I don’t really get depressed. In fact I get restless and frustrated. Even bored. In the hope that I can get back on the road soon. Henceforth Nomad-State-Of-Mind-2024-Bob Davis Podcast 1127 is a peek into the day to say state of mind for this nomad… and perhaps others. Desert Winters Lastly I know winter in the desert is considerably easier to take than winter up north. Wind Storms On the other hand this podcast was recorded in the midst of a huge windstorm and figures prominently in it. Salute To A New Year Finally here’s a salute to the new year…as well as to my planning! and whatever it brings.
