There is a lot of different things going on in my life currently. I am a little scatterbrained in working through it all, but want to share where I am at.
I am working on recording, and in the process editing, my new inspirational/self-awareness book You are Amazing. A couple of beta readers are also going through it. My hope is to start promoting it next month, and publish it in May or June (when the hell did March get here, anyhow?)
The sci-fi epic is still moving along. I have decided to break it up into separate books, and as such have two or three ready to edit. Yes, it’s that long. But I have a name! The series will be called The Void Incursion Saga and book one is titled Points of Origin. I am really enjoying this story, still have NO idea how it will end, and need to begin putting everything together so that I can publish it, perhaps in the fall.
I have continued my regular twice-a-week blogging, but added a new twist. Recently, I discovered the awesomeness that is Medium.com. I have been cross-posting over there, as well as writing an original post just for Medium on Fridays. This is part of why this particular post has come so late in the day.
The podcast is ongoing, of course. Every-other week, alternating with this blog post. I am pleased with it, but need to figure out how to grow my audience.
My life currently needs a little more oomph
There are a number of things that I need to be working on, but I am having some issues motivating to do so.
Harbinger, the 3rd book in The Source Chronicles, has been done for several years. I ran it through one edit, but upon submitting a portion to an editor, was convinced that it needs another. Not sure why this intimidates me as much as it does, but I am not working on it. I really, really need to.
Points of Origin needs to be edited. I broke it out of the overall sci-fi epic, and need to start assembling and editing it.
I don’t dislike editing, but it requires more motivation than writing does. Further, my day job is editing. But before I send this to a professional, I have to do the work. It is a necessity of the trade.
On other fronts, I need to be more mindful of my diet and exercise, and stop allowing myself to be easily distracted. I need to let go of my ADOS (Attention Deficit OOOOOooooooooo shiny!) and set a better schedule.
Does this seem repetitive to you? Seems repetitive to me. I think this is more-or-less what I put here each week.
I know what I desire to do…now I need to better do it.
As Yoda said – “Do or do not, there is no try.”
My life currently belongs to me
There is nobody to blame, but me, when it comes to…anything and everything in my life. Any inaction is on my head, just like any and all actions are.
And I know I can do this. I am capable of making shit happen. I have done it before. This is why the blogs happen twice a week, the podcast get out there, and I am finally getting in meditation every single day for 10 minutes at a time.
I need to work out a new way. Go back to pulling up those useless deep-rooted beliefs that do not serve me.
There has to be something I can do to increase my motivation, and get more stuff done. It’s not a lack of time, but it might be a lack of good time management.
Something to ponder. Keeping this post short and sweet. Thank you for reading these words, and taking part in my ongoing journey. Thank you for joining me.
