			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I heard that Steve Jobs would get to  point in a problem when he would just stop, go for a walk, and then the answer would come.<br />
I find that when I can&#8217;t find something(old people do this a lot!) I go do something else, and when I come back, there&#8217;s the answer, or I find a way to do what seemed to hard.<br />
How many of you wash the floor, clean the house when your taxes are do?  What kind of procrastination works for you?  I love to just sit with a question.  Learn to live with the gap.  The answer does come when I just sit and let not knowing be ok.</p>
