Focus, or the lack thereof—too much sparkly things
Friday, August 02, 2019
My mind is full of ideas it could burst sometimes.
It's a beauty and a curse at the same time.
Up side?
- I never get bored.
- I amuse myself too much.
- I can survive being in the house for days.
Down side?
I dive into projects and withdraw before it even starts!
Definitely the mark of an Arian. But I better stop using my sign as an excuse.
Take the 1st of August as an example.
New month. New plan. New challenge.
And I haven't even accomplished the goals that I have set 2 months ago.

And I haven't even accomplished the goals that I have set 2 months ago.
I keep on diverging from my yearly goals that tracking them will not make sense.
I mean, if I keep abandoning projects and ideas, why bother tracking them?

I had a great 2019 start...
But then birthday month came in and I decided to take a break.
Guess what. Break extended until August.
Lol.

Lol.
I'd rather sleep
But there's a seriousness behind my planning aborts, restarts, and anews. (Did that make sense?)
Anyway, all I'm saying is that I have a reason that's honestly not chameleoned as an excuse.
Client work is uh-mazing. I love doing it.
But sometimes, I have depleting energy these days. (Baby is at its most gulo stage).
So yeah, I'm willing to compromise. For now.
If it means that I need to prioritize my health, my family, and baby of course.

The plans before are paused.
They're taking too much away from my energy.
So, I'm swearing to stick to only these plans—a.k.a. the shiny new things—until the end of the year:

So, I'm swearing to stick to only these plans—a.k.a. the shiny new things—until the end of the year:
- My art (monetizing it)
- Some business with friends (let's see)
- Clients that I have
- New ones, only if I have the extra energy
- Passive gigs (with tribe members)
When my coach asked me what my next plans are, I thought I found my clarity in my answers.
I said I badly want a source of PASSIVE income.
So am working on PASSIVE ways of generating income. For now. Even if it's a little long-term game.

That's basically it.
And oh, more writing for myself.
I missed it.
Just pouring your thoughts out in a blog post—like the early 2000s—because nobody would bother reading it anyway.
Something like this. Scattered thoughts. Grammar mistakes. Subject-verb DISagreements, I don't effing care.
I write like this in real life.
I write like this in real life.
I talk like this in real life.
At least, I talk to myself like this in real life.
I just wish no future prospect gets to read this because I won't get hired if they did. That's fo sure!
That's why I need different personas online. I have lots of layers. I need to be this for this group of people. And this for the other group of people.

Know what I mean?
If you don't. Uhm, sorry, you must think I'm crazy.
K.
Where were we again?

Oh on writing freely.
So the thought of just doing something like this for the next 29 days...
—forcibly (I suppose, I'm a slacker and procrastinator, remember? And an Arian who would go munch on the next gold leaf that my eyes may lay on)—
is like a fresh lemonade after months of milk teas and early morning coffees.
(Is coffees even a word?)
SO yeah, I'm gonna do this until it becomes a bad habit to break.
