I have been in a rut for a while. I used to be extremely active and involved in various communities. I was getting things done and in general feeling like I was excelling at life. I was speaking at conferences, I was writing articles (I wrote a book!), I was making games, writing tutorials, answering questions, blogging, and just really having fun. I’m not sure what exactly happened, it was a gradual thing, but at some point, I realized I just wasn’t doing so great anymore.
I went to therapy (and I’m still in therapy) for several years and I’m at a point where I’m doing much better emotionally, but I still am not creating, I’m not getting things done. I want to change that!
I decided I wanted to track my progress on my various projects and goals. And I thought, hey, why not do that publicly so I can scratch that “creating something” itch as well. And maybe there are some of you out there struggling to get things done as well, so might as well share my ups and downs, my successes, and the projects I end up just having to abandon.
I guess in step one I need to gather my various goals and projects and brain dump them somewhere, guess that’s my first project! This is going to be interesting, may not be as fun and fulfilling as I think, but I wanted to give it a go. Hey, I’m George and I’m a work in progress.
