Mental Crop Rotation

When farmers grow the same crop too many years in a row, it can leave their soil depleted of minerals and other nutrients that are vital to the health of their fields.

To avoid this, farmers will often alternate the crops that they grow because some plants will use up different minerals (such as nitrogen) while other plants replenish those minerals. This process is known as “crop rotation.”

So the next time you find that you need to step away from a project to work on something else for a while, don’t beat yourself up for “quitting” that project. Give yourself permission to practice “mental crop rotation” to maintain a healthy brain field.

Because I’ve found that when that unnecessary guilt and pressure are removed from the process, a good mental crop rotation can help you feel more energized and invigorated than ever once you’re ready to rotate back to that project.

National Parks Vol. 1

Seattle-based photographer Navid Baraty went on a solo 7,200-mile road trip to various national parks around the western United States. Navid captured the journey along the way from steaming geyser basins to rugged badlands, from otherworldly deserts to petrified forests, from thunderous canyons to slot canyons, from sheer cliffs to top-secret military installations. 

Any examples of artwork/installations that you think enhances a city, built environment or building?

So many! Here are a few of my favorites, some very simple, some genius…
