Sometimes I feel paralyzed to do anything because I have so many things that I want to do and I fear not being able to do them. Does anyone else feel that way? It is so hard to get started and to prioritize when there are 20+ projects on the list and nothing needs to be done sooner than the other thing. I often procrastinate as well because when something needs to be done within a week I find it much easier to know that that is the thing I should work on. It drives me a bit crazy. I fight constantly with this tendency of mine and have gotten better over the years but have a long way to go. My inner perfectionist also wars with my ability to get started. Having kids has greatly reduced my more obvious perfectionism but I still have the battle warring inside of me. The things I make often take twice as long as they should because I want them to be perfect. Procrastination helps with this because when there is only an hour left before I have to finish something, perfection is practically impossible. I haven't ever followed through with writing a book to publish because I am afraid I won't actually be good at it and it won't be perfect. I see this same problem in my kids occasionally and hope they can overcome it better than I have done. This will be my year! I am once again writing in this blog to try and get in the habit of writing every day and to share some of the thoughts buzzing around in my head and the projects I work on. I like learning how to do many things so have a lot to share. And I will take suggestions! If anyone wants instructions for anything I am working on or a video with help with how I make something let me know in the comments and I will post it on the blog. Here are a few things I have made recently:
