Time for intermediates

Work with what you have--a rocking chair, a guitar, a supermarket in walking distance, a library to ride your bike to. Or whatever it may be.

With the computer in front of you, look these up:

Four quartets, by TS Eliot
The Transcendentalist, by Emerson
The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, a movie
Flint (for the unemployed and underpaid), a song by Sufjan Stevens

Read in bed, fall asleep. Wake up in the late afternoon and go outside.
