The Pondering Path of Planning
A January 2025 AR Challenge Entry. . .
Pondering can take many paths. So can the process of planning. While I have left real estate as a daily practice my interest in the industry remains. I am grateful for the opportunity this community continues to offer to those of us who wish to continue to participate.
But like any place, the AR community is diverse. Different goals. Strategies and reasons for involvement too. All on display to see. At least to those who choose to make sense of it. Let me tell you, it's been an experience. While I don't know about times yet to arrive, I have learned much throughout my membership.
And like that previously mentioned "real" place, there is change happening around ActiveRainLand. This occurs even as some discussions remain a “constant”. Points, the leaderboard and many sorts of issues continue to "live" among us. Maybe that’s an AR equation that can compute even for the most mathematically challenged among us.
Planning to me certainly includes collecting data as well as information from the past. As we attempt to understand its relationship to the present and consider the future, the effort is an undertaking that brings together many sorts of actions. Yes, mixing, meshing and messing up my relationship with the concept of combinations is something I have repeated often.
Specificity is wise and obviously necessary. However, one’s mindset continues to provide a direction that may not be unstoppable but has a powerful potential. While I may not always be successful in this path it can provide a roadmap open to detours.
Admittedly, there is nothing novel in this approach to the January challenge co-hosted by Leanne Smith and Will Hamm. But I continue to travel on this trail that is uniquely my own but not so uncommon that similarities cannot be gleaned by each of us. In this community and on planet Earth. That is my ongoing story. A plan-in-progress.
