for me it has to start with doing

I was thinking this morning about the importance of boxes for creativity

how can you 'think outside the box' when there's no box

thinking outside the box is communication with circumstances

thinking outside the box is creative communication with circumstances

thinking outside the box is creativity

we're all constrained by boxes we take for granted, or boxes of varying degrees of tangibility

the boxes are moving targets - i have a working set of 10 fingers and 10 toes today - it is not likely to be true for the entire duration of my life

where was I?

when I use a tool, it has to do something from the start

what's that 'do something'?

i get bored easily. i don't have much time. i get frustrated easily. i hate ricing. i have so many hours a day and so many days a week and I don't want to spend sunday morning re-writing my neovim config

there's no joy in that for me (I almost did that today)

but there's joy in using tools

there's joy in thinking outside the box

now really, where was I?

enjoying this song today

I'm procrastinating. see you later.

we're gonna need a better box

what if you made a box

then you thought outside the box

then your thinking outside the box became a dynamic property of a slightly different, slightly more interesting box?

then your next solution to 'thinking outside the box'

what would happen then?
