temporaryrealitydfr1973 (https://dfr1973.dreamwidth.org) started up a book club to read/discuss William Walker Atkinson's books and because he was associated with Charles Godfrey Leland, I thought to "append" my own thoughts to their main conversation.
I'm embarrassed to admit that I started Leland's "Mystic Will" but didn't finish the course of study. Yes, sign of a systemic problem, so much so that I harbor the thought that it's a bad idea to "join" this book club, even in my loosely defined notion of joining. I don't really need to start new projects that'll just peter out. Then again, a bit of accountability is a good thing and maybe I can use this loose connection to give a little fuel to my flagging practice.
This is fundamental (to accomplishing much of anything) and fundamentally related to a direction I want to take in the near future. Not to mention that I have numerous things I'm trying to accomplish and need to cultivate continuity and discipline.
