I have a little news I want to share, which I will do toward the end of this post. You can read everything or you can just scroll down to the bottom, whichever suits your fancy.

I have so much love and admiration for those artists who can see themselves doing nothing but the things that they know. I have even more admiration for the artists who actually make a living doing what they do best: making art. Whether it is physical art like painting, sculpting, or designing, or a more intellectual one like writing stories or producing music, it is hard as hell to make a living doing that.

I have a few challenges. I’m racking my brain trying to pick just one, so I guess I’ll go with the obvious one. Indecisiveness. Analysis paralysis. Overly ambitiousness. ADHD. 

I want to do everything. I want to learn everything. I want to go everywhere. But I get easily distracted sometimes. It wasn’t until I was almost 30 that I learned I possibly had a case of ADHD. When I started attending counseling sessions and took a few screeners, it became obvious that that’s what it was. And it explained so much.
