If you have followed this series of posts (especially my previous post) on my journey to getting set up for success on Gumroad, you would know why Day 3 is missing: I was traveling.

Some folks can churn out pieces well while in transit, or waiting at airports, but not me. I took the day off from posting.

But what about Day 4? And Day 5?

I find that travel, especially one that includes late nights, discombobulates my schedule even the following day. Add to it a day in which we planned specific activities, days 4 and 5 were gone too.

This doesn’t mean nothing happened on these days; just the reporting was the casualty. So, let me backfill here quickly.

Day 3 — Thinking

Very simply, writing and posting is not my cup of tea during travel, but thinking is great. In fact, getting lost in your thoughts is a great way to endure the inordinate wait times at airports.

I was thinking of all the thinking and over-thinking I have been doing for months now regarding my course of action.
