Oscar Wilde said, “Consistency is the last refuge of the unimaginative.” So, stop getting up at 6:45 and get up at 6:15 and take a walk at dawn. Find a new way to drive to work (like by the WIlde Roast Cafe for coffee). Switch chores with your partner next Saturday. Buy a wok. Study wildflowers. Stay up alone all night. Read. Don’t write to your congressperson, take a whole scout troop to see them. Learn a new language. Teach a kid what you do best. Listen to Mozart. Leap out of the rut. Savor life. Remember we only pass this way once.
