Do you ever happen upon one of those moments when you reflect briefly back on your life and how you’ve lived it so far, and decide, “Hey, something’s gotta change?” Do you sometimes wonder why you have so much difficulty finish projects? Do you think that perhaps somewhere out there is somebody who goes through the same things? Welcome home.
My name is Michael. I am ambitious. I’m a programmer. I’m a belly dancer. I like cake just as much as the next person. And I have a nasty habit of starting projects and then dropping them after a very short amount of time.
For example, the longest I have blogged on a schedule without missing a single post was three months. Shortly after that, I dropped it and didn’t touch it for the same amount of time. I have only recently begun writing again on it, feeling refreshed and ambitious all over again.
I’m hoping this time I actually follow through on it.
As another example, I made it a goal of mine to write in a personal journal every single day for three months to reflect on my day, in order to have a running archive of what I’ve accomplished, so that I could look back and be proud of myself. I made it about two months and then skipped one day, then another, then two months later I was returning to try again.
But, this is supposed to be a professional blog, and I came here for a reason. I have come to announce that I officially succeeded at finding a programming gig, and I’m very thankful for it. This is one project I am positive I will follow through with and complete. It has a finish date – I can make it through anything that has a deadline and ending. Now it’s just a matter of remembering.
Kick me if I fail!
