Day 4614: Procrastination

Posted on August 20, 2025 by Ann Koplow

Procrastination is something most of us practice, until we get it right.

Yesterday, I was procrastinating sending an email to people about the upcoming release of my live album The Singing Therapist — Live at the Lilypad. I seem to practice procrastination regarding actions where I am afraid I might make a mistake, not have the answer to possible questions, might be bothering people, and anything that feels unfamiliar or arduous.

Do you see procrastination in my images for today?

I haven’t written a song about procrastination yet, so here is a TED talk about it.

Thanks to all who overcame procrastination to read this procrastination post, including YOU!

Day 4571: A good place

Posted on July 8, 2025 by Ann Koplow

I try to make my therapy groups a good place for people to share whether or not they are in a good place.

People will sometimes start the group by admitting that they are not in a good place. By the end of the group, they seem to be in a better place, just knowing they are not alone.

The hospital is a good place for me to do my therapy groups in person on Mondays. The rest of the week, my home is a good place to do my virtual groups.

It’s difficult for me to see the USA as a good place these days.

I try to get into a good place before I check my INR, since so many things affect it, including my mood.

This seems like a good place to share my photos for the day.

The ferry is a good place for me to start my Mondays.

A patient told me about a good place — Ponyhenge in Lincoln, MA

I told my patient about a good place nearby that honors Amelia Earhart.

I need to find a good place for this calendar in my new, shared office.

The ferry is a good place to be at the end of my workday.

A Tesla is a good place for these bumper stickers.

Here’s what I find when I search for “a good place” on YouTube.

The comments section is a good place for you to express any thoughts and feelings about this post.

Thanks to all those who make a good place better, including YOU!

Day 1924: Impossible

Posted on April 8, 2018 by Ann Koplow

Some people feel it’s impossible to blog daily for over five years. I believe it would have been impossible for me to face the world as effectively as I have since January 1, 2013 without this blog.

Yesterday, I saw something impossible at a local restaurant.

Because it was possible for me to do so, I took that impossible flag with me. I guess I like taking on the impossible.

It’s very possible to find impossible quotes on the internet.

It’s kind of fun for me to share my impossible and possible photos here.
