I find that my mind picks up on opportunities for optimization and efficiency. While that perspective is helpful to come up with new ideas and projects, I can become paralyzed waiting for perfect conditions.
One way I'm trying to grow is to embrace making small changes at a time - to make incremental tweaks enough to soothe whatever glaring inefficiency that mind cannot unsee. I can't always wait for everything to align to orchestrate the perfect move that proceeds in the sequence that I envision for it to unfold.
One satisfying project that I took on this summer was optimizing my work station. I finally ordered parts so that they were in my hands and in my office rather than occupying space in my brain for months on end. And once the first pieces came together, I was reminded that taking a step created the momentum I needed!
With one less project on my mind and the summer break wrapped up, I'm feeling refreshed for the fall ahead!
