Journal
This is where I think out loud.

Some entries are reflections on conversations. Some come from coaching. Some are written after a long day when something won’t leave my mind.
I don’t write these to sound profound. I write them to be clear. If I’m wrestling with something, I’d rather put it into words than let it sit unexamined.
Not every post is a conclusion. Some are questions. Some are course corrections. Some are reminders to myself.
This category is a record of progress — not perfection.

The older I get, the more I understand what he mean…
