How do you begin things?
Projects, dinner parties, job searches, love affairs, exercise programs, novels, new friendships...

In my experience the energy people bring to a beginning has a certain similarity across their lives, and by way of thinking about why and how, I'm posting this question. For instance, speaking for myself, beginnings are very fluid and almost dreamlike. I anticipate, I wait for the time to be right, I float in and out of the mists which surround the project. And somehow I start. But once I do really begin, I am very focused (and at times organized to a fault), which might fit more the image you all have of me by now. :)

What's your path?
