I woke up this morning feeling better in many ways, and finally a bit more motivated. Sketched some ideas and notes that have been running round in my head for a while but I just couldn’t get to paper.

Yesterday I spent some time in London, the majority of which was spent outside. I realised that it had been so long since I’ve been out in proper sunshine (it was a nice day) and just wandered around with no specific agenda. A lot of walking, rather than tubing, was had. Good food, good company, and good weather makes such a difference.

I’ve come to realise that life is too short to make up reasons for not doing things. If there is nothing urgent to do, then I need to relax and prioritise what’s important. I still feel tense and tired, there’s a whole lot more to do on that front, but feel that progress is being made in trying to live a bit fuller.

San Jose next week. It’ll be good to get out of the Cambridge normality into a different environment. Hopefully this can continue…
