We steer where we are looking.

In reflecting upon my eight-day "carbon cleanse" and moving forward with incorporating what I have learned into my daily life, I keep thinking about what David Mamet wrote about in his essay "Race Driving School":  Race car drivers are taught to look at the road if their car goes into a spin and they anticipate crashing - because we unconsciously steer in the direction we are looking.

I find this so inspiring.  And, I want to keep on looking in the direction of sustainability.

This week was great.  If you're curious about trying the experiment yourself, I highly recommend it!  Thanks to Colin Beavan for starting the No Impact Project.  Onward and upward...
