Oof, attended a council meeting this evening about a development that is planned down the road of my place. Must say, I know of better ways to spend a Monday evening. The council decided to let the development go ahead, which is very unfortunate. There are avenues of appeal though, and quite a large level of opposition to this, so hope is not lost.
I’ll be frank, I didn’t want to go this evening. I was kinda expecting this outcome, and feeling all that (justifiable) emotion was uncomfortable. I felt it was important to attend nonetheless. All the Pressfield and Godin I’ve been reading recently seemed to meld together into a simple though along the lines of “yeah, it’ll probably be uncomfortable and ultimately won’t change anything. Do it anyway”.
