    Upload a video to Youtube <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    I’ve been putting off making content for youtube, a goal I’ve set out for myself. Yesterday, when I was adding a short video into my blog, I thought, “I could post this on my website directly<\/em> (easy, comfortable, waste of website space), or I could start some momentum on youtube and get reacquainted with the platform<\/em>.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The later felt like it was more work, even though it was just a few extra minutes. Sometimes a few extra minutes is more uncomfortable than we recognize. I put a lot of projects off because of the many small tasks involved. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Acknowledging the discomfort of the small step, helped me recognize that I was putting it off and exactly why. Knowing this small task was uncomfortable, I thought “Discomfort is no reason to put this off! Take action!” <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    What I Learned:<\/strong> Minuscule discomforts evade capture and add up. Recognize the tiny discomforts you’re putting off, even though the task may be small. Then do it! Or at least find a better reason to delay the task than discomfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Graffiti something indecent and sign my name<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Actually, my BFF Shlomo signed my name. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    When I drew this I was half amused and half ashamed at myself. But comforted by the anonymity. Until Shlomo signed my name. I don’t know anyone else with my name in my community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If anyone asks, that’s a rainbow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Improv in a dream<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    I’ve been spending so much time looking for discomforts to take advantage of, that I’m now doing discomfort challenges in my dreams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    I had a non-lucid dream last night. I was at an improv show. I remembered the two other challenges I did already, but I thought, this would be a great opportunity for one more challenge. So I jumped on stage, keeping these goals in mind:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
