What's in a name?
According to my Apple dictionary, admittedly not a definitive source, a ‘consideration’ is a thought, reflection, meditation, concern, rumination etc. I would like this blog to do those things. I’m hoping I can keep the posts positive because, as someone once reminded me, it is important to practise the habits of mind that you value and want to foster. For me those are: positivity, curiosity, openness and self-reflection (hence, a blog is a good forum).
Also, I’m calling them 'small' because I would like to try to get into the habit of blogging briefly but often. That way I can reflect on everyday occurrences and make this form of writing and thinking a habit, hopefully.

Routine
I am a person who needs routine, I've decided. I know that sounds boring, and possibly stifling for some people. Maybe it comes from having been a teacher for so long and being told when do to things by a bell (which is not natural - why do we do that to kids?). I have only achieved my writing goal one out of the last three days so I am implementing a routine from today. I will try not to be so rigid with it that I can't take advantage of opportunities that arise, but I'm hoping it will help me get what I want out of my time. My routine will roughly be: to use the morning, when I first wake up for Rocket Writing, then proper writing or editing for two hours. After that I can see people, volunteer, work, do classes, mop the floor, all those other fun things in life. We'll see how it goes.
