Dizzy With Designs

My mind has been racing with plans for 2010, and my whirling thoughts have left me feeling a little dazed. Either that or I have some physical ailment that has yet to reveal itself. I am excited but jittery. I write this post in the hope that it will help me to ease my head and collect my scrambled wits. These avenues are shadowy at best right now. Like one awaiting daybreak to march an unknown stretch, time is the means to see my course.

Now to break down a year's worth of tasks and unknowns into the more manageable matter of this weekend's. Below, the input of two U.S. presidents.

"If you're walking down the right path and you're willing to keep walking, eventually you'll make progress."
- Barack Obama

"Towering genius disdains a beaten path. It seeks regions hitherto unexplored."
- Abraham Lincoln

P.S. I make no claims to be a genius of towering proportions, but I did enjoy the sentiment of Mr. Lincoln's statement in the face of a widely distributed catalogue of acceptable formulas for success.
