Here is an aspect of life that simply cannot be avoided. I don’t just mean that automobiles, ocean currents, and lungs will always be moving, but that relocation is a guarantee in at least some aspect of a person’s life. Studying for the LSAT is a big indicator that the masochist engaging in the study is indeed a masochist familiar with moving: moving from subject to subject, school to school, apartment to apartment, girlfriend to boyfriend to boyfriend to girlfriend to wife to another boyfriend and then, eventually, to a dog named Rico. These types of relocation really must be avoided in LSAT study. But so too must funerals, weddings, hospital visits, and other predictable inevitabilities. Since they can’t really be avoided, and only in certain situations can they be minimized, they must be dealt with graciously.
Here’s an example of dealing with it graciously: My old blog was on a crap server. Now I'm with Squarespace, so that's cool. I’m letting you, the reader, know. I have realized that I’m very likely the only one looking at this page, but graciousness is a matter of notifying people of change whether or not those people care. I happen to care, so it’s doubly gracious for me. I know this blog is only a week old, but one thing that the LSAT will teach is to change the approach the moment you realiz it can be improved. Paying for a service almost universally improves the quality of the service.
As for meditation: Zen actually embraces moving the same way it embraces staying put. Is it happening? Then that’s fine; it should be dealt with as it happens and not before or after. To the meditator who is also studying for the LSAT, moving, instead of being distinct from study, would be a part of the study. The three hours in the library and two hours packing boxes or hanging up with exes is a very real component to LSAT prep.
And because I’m rather drunk, I’ll say that this about covers it. The takeaway here is that moving (relocation) and things that move (lungs and trucks) are unavoidable parts of life and should be minimized or, better yet, integrated into important aspects of study, meditation, and life.
