I haven't done a personal log in almost a month, so figured I would throw one out there to come clean about a little something some of you might have figured out about me.

I'm a procrastinator. Worse than that, I never seem to finish anything much in life because I switch gears more often that a driver at the Daytona 500.

Now, I'm not exactly downing on myself or hating on myself and all that. I've come to accept this part of myself and try and find ways to work around it.

I usually loop, though. I will eventually come back around to the things that I stopped or avoided and do something with it, usually succeeding in getting further than I did before, or, coming up with a new or improved step on what I did before.

Trouble is, I have a brain with a billion ideas going on and not a lick of time for any of them, and if that isn't bad enough, I tend to have very little knowledge on how to make them come to pass. So, I tend to grab an idea or something I desire to do that's currently occuppying my brain because I see some progress that can be made and ride that gear until something else comes to the foreground.

Getting stuck is the quickest way to cause a gear switch. Well, stuck, or 'attention span over', or lifestyle change, or increase or reduction in availability... lot's of stuff, really.

It always comes down to time. I have lots of time, so now I can do this. I am exhausted and I've been at work all day every day for a week, so I'll do that because it doesn't require much. I have an unexpected day off and I wasn't planning on doing anything, but maybe I can do those things with the time I have.

To be honest, the biggest reason I got into crypto currencies was the hope to eventually become a whale, so that I wouldn't have to spend so much time and energy trying to produce income and I could spend more time on producing results from my ideas.

Now, I'm not pitching a sale here. I always have been and always will be a GDI (God Damned Independant). I even had to be taught that NOT accepting a gift was an insult, because I grew up being the kind of guy that would help others, but not allow myself to be helped. So, no sales pitch. No asking. Just telling you that it has always been my goal in crypto to provide a passive income to free me to persue my ideas.

So why bring up my procrastination? Well, in the middle of my Valheim build, I suddenly stopped and switched gears again and I'm like... wow. I mean don't get me wrong, I'm gonna go back to it eventually, but I'm thinking to myself... you know... anybody that follows my blogs enough has got to see that I'm about a wishy washy as a vegabond on a job hunt. Different job every week, it seems.

What switched me up this time...? Well, I don't own a tv service, but I do have a 'My List' on Netflix that has got to have a years worth of back log and growing. I happened to catch my room mate watching something interesting, so took a gander at my list and started the first episode of Sweet Tooth, and now I can't turn it off. In fact, I'm starting up episode 5 or 6 as soon as I publish this.

Hopefully!... when I get through the end of the second season (the end for sweet tooth, at this point), I won't start another series and I'll switch back to Valheim to finish what I started there, but knowing me... something else in my billions of ideas pile will grab my attention. We'll see.
