A8 Guiding lights have been teachers -- when paying attention -- family and work associates who set examples through everyday actions. #SpiritChat

A6 Simple living encourages deeper feelings that aid inner journeys. You can't get to one without the other. #SpiritChat

A5 Keep things simple and avoid overthinking during emotional times so others -- and yourself -- have someone to count on. #SpiritChat

A4 Seeding good relationships now will bear fruit for support as the spring and summer heat up. #SpiritChat

Whenever possible, don't monkey with your mind. #SpiritChat

A3 Wanting tro be all things for everyone changes simplicity to multitasking, which really isn't a thing -- only the burnout when you try it. #SpiritChat

A2 Simplicity clears your mind from clutter and helps important things stand out. #SpiritChat

A1` Simple is good. There's no reason to make life more complex than it already is. #SpiritChat

Joining #SpiritChat from Maryland to talk with @ajmanik.bsky.social about growing simplicity.

T3 Starting over doesn’t require shrinking yourself. It requires separating confidence from certainty. Keep your standards, ethics and decision-making muscle intact—just loosen your grip on being right. That’s how experts evolve without erasing themselves. #HealthXPh

T3 You don’t start over as a beginner—you start over as a disciplined novice. Be humble about the new domain, ruthless about applying your hard-won judgment, and clear on where expertise transfers. Curiosity earns trust early; discernment proves value fast. #HealthXPh

T2 Identity feels fragile in transitions because we confuse title with self. Skills, judgment and values travel with you; credentials and roles don’t. When you anchor identity to contribution rather than position, change stops feeling like erasure. #HealthXPh

T2 The identity crisis is managed with honesty: you’re not losing who you are, you’re shedding a role that once fit. Grief is normal; clinging out of fear is optional. #HealthXPh

T2: The financial crisis is managed with math and margin: extend runway, lower fixed costs, preserve benefits and avoid irreversible moves. #HealthXPh

T1 Practical first steps: name what isn’t working (role, pace, incentives, values), audit your transferable skills, then create slack—time, savings, optionality—before making any visible move. #HealthXPh

T1 You know it’s time to shift when effort keeps rising but meaning, learning, or impact keeps falling. That’s not burnout—it’s misalignment. #HealthXPh

This concludes my day at #DigiBlogChat. We now return to other regularly scheduled programming.

A10 I'm spoiled too rotten if cars went back to analog. Been there, done that. Let others have that adventure. #DigiBlogChat

A9 I can't speak about any streaming service because we don't subscribe to any. We have an Amazon TV, but I've only switched to it for an occasional football game. I wouldn't suffer without it. #DigiBlogChat

A8 When clocks whet digital, the future seemed to stop. #DigiBlogChat

A7 I haven't been thrilled about much of music since the 1980s, which coincides with when it became easier to make commercially. So, there's that. #DigiBlogChat

A6 I'm out of touch with youngsters' habits, but I haven't seen or heard anything from those I know that shows any swing back to analog for anything. #DigiBlogChat

A5 I feel more at ease in cars with speed and RPMs displayed on dials, but I wouldn't trade digital monitoring of tire pressure for regular manual checks with hand-held pressure gauges. #DigiBlogChat GPS works well, too.

A4 Film photography gives you more control over aperture and exposure. The problem is that camera phones do a good enough job for my needs right now, and it's been so many years that I've likely forgotten most analog techniques. #DigiBlogChat

A3 I'm really not writing long hand if that's what you mean. When I do that, I print letters because my handwriting is lousy. If even a day or two passes, even I can't make it out. #DigiBlogChat

A2 My analog watch gives me hour, minute and second hands. It's self-winding, and only gives me stress when I have to move up the days and the end of months less than 31 days. #DigiBlogChat

A1 I only regularly get into a dozen or so apps. I suppose the Twitter app is on the endangered species list, but I'm not there yet. #DigiBlogChat

Joining #DigiBlogChat pre-recorded from Maryland to talk with Carol Stephen and LazBlazter about living analog in a digital world, although I'm sort of a mixed bag. Meanwhile, tech resolutions with Maricar Jagger#DigiBlogChatis set for Jan. 26.
