Notebook Entry December 2010: NO MORE TALKING ABOUT THINGS…TIME TO JUST DO THEM

Ideas without actions are beginning to feel like broken promises.
I promise myself by filling my mind with the ideas of what could be only to be disappointed with what never is.
In one day I’ve dreamt of building my own house, becoming a farmer, becoming a chef, starting up a restaurant, starting a magazine, building furniture, moving to France, moving to Oregon, rebuilding Athens, living closer to family, mastering the guitar, learning the piano, reading all the books in my bookshelf, and selling all my belongings.
Ideas are beginning to feel like opinions. Opinions spew from the mouths of the uninformed and inexperienced as if they were bad ideas that have come to fruition and gone. What if instead of giving one’s opinion on the state of affairs, instead there was talk of solutions followed by direct action.
There is talk of a need for more “Idea People.” I’m in the favor of people who act.
