Mental Crop Rotation
When farmers grow the same crop too many years in a row, it can leave their soil depleted of minerals and other nutrients that are vital to the health of their fields.
To avoid this, farmers will often alternate the crops that they grow because some plants will use up different minerals (such as nitrogen) while other plants replenish those minerals. This process is known as “crop rotation.”
So the next time you find that you need to step away from a project to work on something else for a while, don’t beat yourself up for “quitting” that project. Give yourself permission to practice “mental crop rotation” to maintain a healthy brain field.
Because I’ve found that when that unnecessary guilt and pressure are removed from the process, a good mental crop rotation can help you feel more energized and invigorated than ever once you’re ready to rotate back to that project.
: A crucial part of crop rotation is that the field is let fallow sometimes. You plant what’s called a “cover crop”, which is something you don’t expect to harvest– it’s there for its roots to hold the soil in place, and often it’ll be what’s called a nitrogen-fixer, i.e. a plant that can pull nitrogen out of the air and fix it into the soil with its roots (but sometimes it won’t, sometimes it’s really just there to shelter the soil surface), and then you’ll till in that cover crop, or let the frost kill it and the stalks lie as mulch, and then you’ll rotate productive crops back into that field the next season.
It’s important, though, to understand that during the fallow period, no nutrients are removed from that ground, and nothing is expected of it. Whatever the land grows then, it keeps, and it gets tilled back in or decomposes in place, to return its energy to the earth.
We’re not allowed, in our current society, to just let our minds be fallow for a bit, to produce nothing for export, to make nothing that can be sold. But it’s part of good land stewardship, to give every field time when it doesn’t need to give you anything back.
So yes, grow and produce different things from time to time, rotate them around your mind and exercise different mental muscles, take different things from your creative processes, yes– but also, give yourself a fallow spell now and again, and let the field of your mind grow things for itself to keep, to break down and save for later.
Positive mental health AND agriculture??!?

I may be the most unfunny person on the internet but at least I'm the coolest one in the room because I've got monster trucks on my underwear
I love my beautiful wife.
memory unlocked this morning, any of y'all grow up with chicken bingo or did i just grow up real country
yeah you know the game where the pastor brings out his chickens and lets them walk around on a big numbered board and every time they take a shit he calls out the number for your bingo card
no wonder i can't pound new languages into my brain i speak movie quotes and decade-old memes
editing is so fun. I'm learning what the story I wrote is about
sometimes after you learn what your story is about, you resolve to write a thematically appropriate sequel. this, unfortunately, means you have another section to edit, and now your story means two things. maybe more. imagine.
This post understands editing like nobody else. Everybody else delete your blogs. I want to be alone with OP so we can talk.
there was exactly one strawberry in my special k this is really the day i'm gonna have huh
i log into tumblr and immediately become the most unfunny person on the internet, all the funny is left at the doorstep
anyway here's Sam
Oh yeah the big thing I started (and intend to get back to) In The Meantime-
Anyone like Destiny 2?
do i just... go back to reblogging things that amuse me and shout to the masses about my OCs? is that how it works?
ok real talk i literally just never downloaded tumblr on my new phone back in 2018 and never bothered to log back on online since I was trying to focus on classes, and kinda did the whole 'oh wow let's see how long I can stay off'.
making vague attempts at getting projects off the ground (continued and am continuing to write (supposedly), have a *little* art), and admittedly telling myself 'hey people online want to see your stuff' helped light a fire under my ass in the past about staying on top of things.
Anyway, only real life updates I got is i'm alive, Zach and I got married and we moved states, we inherited an old dog who we gave his best years to right to the end, and got a black kitten named Samhain around this past Halloween.
Alright back to homework.
i finished my homework
Me: so if snips, snails and puppy dog tails make boys and sugar, spice and everything nice make girls, what makes me?
Zach not missing a beat: dice, anxiety and booze.
Alright back to homework.
Here’s the dealio. I’m still debating on sticking around, and I mean if my art gets pulled, whatever. Exam week hasn’t given me a lot of time to think. I don’t really do ‘nsfw’ anyway, and I can’t see what of my stuff (if any) has been flagged. That said, might as well plug my other social media because I thrive on validation. I’m moderately active on twitter and instagram is pretty much just for my art.
