Are you busy? I’m busy. When I get busy, I have the horrible habit of taking on even more things. Here I am writing instead of coding or reviewing my presentation for WordCamp Orlando this weekend.
In reality, though, I should be writing every day or few anyway. Writing is good for my soul and a few people (I won’t name names) have told me they enjoy the content. The problem I have today is that I just shipped a lot of stuff. Scotch is for shippers, so I’m three sheets to… no, but that would be rewarding. Since I shipped, I’m in the “what to do next” moment.
Of course, I need to recite my presentation aloud to see how long it is since I hit the road tomorrow at lunch. The rest of the afternoon will probably be spent on a couple of emails for some more December revenue and starting the next project in my queue. I told her my goal was to be done by the 18th.
This is what happens when you set goals. You find a way to meet them and you can’t be concerned about every little detail or you’ll never ship and never get paid, move on, drink scotch, etc.
So get going and finish something, cross it off your list, and move on to the next thing.
This post? It’s not really a finished, polished product this time, but I shipped it and someone will find it useful.
Perfect advice as I’m sitting here tweaking a logo that’s ready to ship — thanx!
I understand what you are saying. I would use Genesis if I had the tools.
..unless Genesis is just an ad. It’s your rhetoric I admire.
Yep … I needed this today. Thanks! 🙂
I’m glad it was timely! I’ll start doing more posts like this. It was therapeutic, too.
