The title’s a little wordy, so let me clarify.
You have a finite amount of time. Sillily obvious, I know, but worth noting anyway.
I tried to do gymnastics, comics, opera, dance, gaze at everything on the internet and run this here blog all at the same time.
This had the effect of me doing everything half-butted.
Then I told myself: “All you need to do is try HARDER! DO IT ALL! DON”T SLEEP! EAT A LIVE COCKATOO AND ABSORB ITS LIFE ENERGY!”
This is dumb.
I tried to give 100% to all my projects, which meant I had to give 500% of myself at any given time.
Be smart enough to know your current limitations so you can move past them. Partition your projects into little bits and chew them at times that you can actually taste them all equally.
Tooolverrinne!
