I'm tired of being busy. I'm tired of sharing just how busy I am with the world. And I'm tired of prioritizing things that don't really matter instead of things that do. Most of my busyness is self-imposed; I'm my own busy boss. My busyness primarily comes in the form I'll call shuffling.

Something I struggle with ALL THE FREAKING TIME is that I'll throw myself into a new project—with wild abandon, no less! — and then completely reverse course (or even drop it altogether) a short while later. I have been reflecting on it all and recognized a pattern that underlies many of my abandoned projects.
