You’ve got this thing you’re working on.
That thing you really should do every day for maximum effect.
That thing you talk about a lot.
Writing blog posts; taking pictures; making art; practising an instrument; contacting new people; reading books; learning languages and shooting videos.
But little materialises, if at all.
You love the idea of it, and you think about it all the time. You know you have the talent to create great things, but you’re flagging.
The project is falling behind because you’re not using your day ‘efficiently’ enough. You’re not an energetic person. You’re ‘lazy’. Or you have too many other things on your plate to give it a really good go.
You drop into your bed at night and you let out a big sigh. Maybe tomorrow.
This sucks because it gnaws at you. We only live once, and you’re not doing that thing.
We don’t give our project the time and energy it deserves to gather momentum; to gain traction; to develop our skills and to really turn it into something that makes a dent on ourselves and maybe even the world.
Maybe you just weren’t cut out for it.
