The Rising Tide!

How am I doing on this How am I Doin' Friday? I'm itching!
Some little insect was flitting about as I was sitting here.I kept swatting away at it and it kept coming back. Now I have a bite on my forearm,my opposite wrist and my belly and they itch like crazy!
It may sound like a petty inconvenience but it really itches!
Actually I am doing just fine. It's a new day and I have a number of tasks to attend today and I am looking forward to being useful .Productive would be better,and I know that is what is at the core of what is weighing me down.
This extended period of non productivity is leaving me feeling impotent.
I am a get it done kind of person.
I am the guy who always accomplishes.
I am the provider.
I am the problem solver.
I am the idea generator.
I am the guy with the plan.
I am the guy with the vision.
I create WOW!
Lately, this has not been the case. If I were to look back at my writings from 1 year ago, I guarantee, that they would be addressing this same issue.
It's late August. For 20 years I spent late August setting up temporary Halloween stores.On a daily basis, I would be creating as well as accomplishing. I was great at what I did.Not to brag or boast, I believe there was no one nor is there today anyone, better at doing what I did than I was.
That's a statement of fact,not bragging.
I didn't make a lot of money at it and it was exhausting and draining,mentally,physically and emotionally.
I was challenged on a daily basis and on a daily basis,I met and exceeded all expectations.
Just knowing I was accomplishing something that no one else could accomplish,elevated me.
Lately,this has not been the case.
I had a brief taste of it earlier this year when we built The Grooming Shop.
Now, there is an empty hole, a void, in this part of my life and quite frankly,it's becoming an issue.
I need to be great once again.
I need to feel special.
I need to be inspired.
Why? 
Because the rising tide raises all boats and I am that tide!
Shabbat Shalom!
