Tabula Rasa

I recently upgraded my computer. And, at first, I was so onboard with the idea of migrating my life from my last macbook to this one.

It would be easy. I would be efficient. It would be fast.

But, there is a beautiful power in a blank slate.

Whether that is a new year, a new home… or a new computer.

I decided not to waste the opportunity.

Rather, I reflected on what I actually need to take with me. I downloaded the handful of apps that I love. Setup my processes. Migrated over the files that I knew I would want (and backed up the rest of them).

It’s nice getting to build from nothing.
