The Work is Waiting

     I couldn't wait to begin typing out my chaotic mess of a brain when I posted my first blog entry about x weeks ago.  I nailed down two more I felt....well....ok with......and disappeared.  Not a stretch for my personality at all really.  Lately I've been finding it more and more difficult to produce the quantity of work I'm used to.  Before, having a multitude of projects on hand at any given moment was the norm as I bounced between various crafts but now just sitting down to type these words took serious coercion.  It took an introspective afternoon after a particularly lack luster Technical Composition class that I realize my main problem.  I've been lazy!  If you expected better, more intricately presented prose I apologize, but the observation and subsequent answer was simple.  Don't be.
    I had been letting the loose ends from my life's work intimidate me into believing that the work had lost it's merit or worth.  Whenever my motivation would gather steam, by mind would flood my conscious with reasons, excuses, complaints, and distractions all to keep me from even beginning the task of finishing were I had started.  It's really an easy thing to do.  The mind is a powerful ally or adversary and only we have the power to decide how to use it correctly.  Sometimes, we must examine our actions and ask ourselves how much we are avoiding new adventures and opportunities all because we have convinced ourselves we're not good enough or it's not worth the hassle?  If you've decided you're not happy with how much you are accomplishing, I have simple advice.  Do the work.  Once stripped of the glamour and hype, any task, no matter how cataclysmic or insignificant can be tackled knowing your ready to do the work.
     Sorry this may come off slightly incoherent and rambling but writing this one definitely helped me.  I'm hoping to charge at my life's projects full force from here on out and make some progress.  I hope you have gotten something from these posts as I have enjoyed bringing them to you.  Please feel free to comment!  I will take all criticisms objectively and use them to further improve myself and my writings.
