Yesterday, something happened near LA county (technically, it was Riverside county) that hasn't happened in quite a while. We had twisters (tornadoes), heavy rain, hail, and flooding in May.
Wow! What a day...when I left for work, the sky was a bit dreary -- but I had no idea that by the time I left, the heavens would open up -- and a torrent of heavy rain would descend. What was even more interesting was that after driving West a few miles, the sun peak out tentatively -- and I was able to go running.
When I got to the track, I was surprised -- I had the entire track to myself. I was very excited...as this was a first...however, by the time I got around the track a few times....I was totally exhausted...not breathing hard...just simply exhausted; or perhaps it was boredom. I've been running for a number of years, and I guess I was just fed up with the process yesterday...or perhaps --- I was disappointed because there was no audience (so to speak)...perhaps my energy doesn't come from me but from others around me...
What if the truth of the matter is that in order to be productive...I need an audience???? Hmmmm, that's definitely something to think about.
Careful examination perhaps leads me to believe that I am more productive when I'm in front of an audience, or feel the need to prove something -- to myself??? to others???? I don't know who the proof goes to...I only know that I need to prove something to someone.
Ah ha...perhaps that's why when the media comes around for an interview, my personality becomes more energetic and animated -- my eyes seem brighter, my mind clicks faster, and my personality voltage increases exponentially.
