Thought for the day

Just a quickie, as much to get something out of my head as anything…

I need to work out the balance between achieving meaningful things of an evening and relaxing and winding down to bedtime properly.

This week I joined Leo Babauta’s Sea Change programme (the programme formerly known as Premium Membership). I was sucked in by the promise of the unprocrastination material planned for July, and while I’m waiting for it to be published I’m working through the recent back catalogue. Last night I watched an hour or so of “How to write more” webinar.

It turns out that watching a course designed to inspire you to do stuff, and then going to bed without doing any of it makes for a very un-zen night’s sleep. On the other hand, I’m all inspired about how to expand on ideas, how to capture ideas for posts, and generally how to enhance my output.

I want to make sure I post here at least 3 times per week. I want to take part in nanowrimo this year – and will start planning ahead of 31st October for it. I plan to post on stitchedup.com once a week, with a post to accompany a newly (re)released design.

Plus, you know, do the day job and run the house and raise the children… Should be a breeze!

in true unprocrastination style, I’m publishing this 2 weeks after I wrote it. What can I say – I left status on draft by accident…
