When connection presents too many paths, define one primary focus point. Recontextualize a habitual communicative action into a deliberate act of connection. Discover a novel dimension to the mundane act of sharing words. Let expression meet purpose in the way you approach this. Let this small step help you connect separate ideas into a useful whole as you give an unfinished idea a little room.
