Beginnings

I am really bad at starting new things because I have the tendency to overanalyze every little step. Which means I'm not very productive.

I am really bad at continuing old things because I have the tendency to get bored very easily. Which means I'm not very productive.

One of my college professors always started off the semester by talking about the word-hoard, which he said was the part of our brain that remembered words. Like in the days of the great poets, how Homer wrote and could recite the Illiad and the Odyssey from memory. Which all vanished the second we began to write, losing our remarkable memories or the need for them. (I took three classes with him and he recycled his material, so I had a lot of time to mull over this concept.)

My memory has always been horrible, and the days tend to blend in with each other. I can also go for weeks without doing anything substantial.

Hence this blog to myself. Which will be a little bit of everything. To keep myself productive. Accountable. And remember.

My message to myself:
dear mon coeur,
stop thinking, start doing.
stop dreaming, start living.
stop recieving, start producing.
xoxo mon coeur
