stay focused

Yesterday was the most disappointing day I’ve had in a long time, yet I was still able to work on the two most important projects—my self help essays. I wrote one and submitted it to Brain, Child. And I added to chapter 3 of FOL!

Didn’t do too much else tho. But in the spirit of the 80/20 principle, that was enough.

In terms of focus, I made one major mistake this year. I volunteered to work on a project. It made sense at the time, yet now, five months later the project isn’t as relevant as it was. In some ways it can fulfil one of the 43 things, but in other ways it’s a drain on resources—and it’s a volunteer thing!

Well on the bright side it’s a resume thing, and I can get a reference from it. So I’m going to hold on to it and keep working it for the forseeable future. And I’ll try to work on making it more relevant to what I really want to do.
