(this is the "its not my fault" theory of decision making - I received so much criticism for my ADD behavior, forgetting mostly, growing up that I now avoid making decisions. -OR- "I saw Joe Glum the other day and he was _smiling_! I said, "Joe why are your so happy"? He told me that he had hired a guy to take care of all of his problems for $1,000.00 a day. When I asked how he was going to afford to pay him, Joe answered "thats his problem." (this is the relaxed mind theory. We make the best decisions when we are not emotionally stressed) Yes, Kerch you do know me.

The sender did not do anything to choose who got and did not get an e-mail. He or she just selected the commands to send the invitation to everybody on the address book's database. But you knew that. . . In case you are wondering how I check the spelling of the text, I paste here from MS Word. I also try to pick words I think I can spell.

I find it useful when there are too many choices AND when the outcome isn't particularly important. It's also fun sometimes to use the lack of choices to expand your creativity. HMM.. think I'll write more about that. Thanks for the note. Keeps me thinking. Taylor

It's funny, this "lesson" is the one I go back and forth on. There are actually benefits towards delaying AND making earlier decisions, but I think overall we usually do a poor job of taking advantage of the benefits of delaying.

And there's the wildly changing sky. Even our own physiology is a dynamic kaleidoscope -- no doubt that we evolved constantly looking within and without. Schoolhouse behavior was probably not greatly selected for until tribes began to rely on manufactured artifacts. Maybe returning to sensations in nature is clue for getting along spelendidly with ADHD. This would marry aspects of both the farmer & hunter -- and your daily rhythms would probably fall in line with a more natural diet. Our activities would also appear more appropriate to the general flow and energies of life. Thus, nature provides.
