The book I hadn't finished and didn't have time to finish before it was due is finished! AND, it's not even due to my editor until tomorrow. It's like I'm on schedule or something. And what a freeing fucking feeling that is!
Cause I've realized that my brain doesn't work in that whole, we've got something due in 7 days so if we break it up into 7 chunks and do a little each day we can get it done with no problem way. Instead, my brain says, we've got something due in 7 days, we don't even have to think about it until day 6.5. Amiright?
So, to know my brain works that way AND to have it finished like 12 hours early is fucking amazing. I feel like I should be a motivational speaker or something now.
What says you? Are you 7 chunks in 7 days? Or wait until day 6.5 and do 7 chunks in half a day?
Huh, this is sounding an awful lot like my self-sabotaging issue. In which case my career as a motivational speaker may be short lived.
