'It’s funny, though – when my to-do list is small and my time is great, I won’t get diddly-squat accomplished. It feels as if I have all the time in the world, and all the time in the world doesn’t necessarily light a fire under my brain’s butt.'

I’ve always said to follow your passions without putting expectations on an outcome. If you love or are interested in something, pursue it and explore it. I did that last year when I started doing marketing for my favorite band, The Blue Twenty2’s. All I had going for me was a love of their music and a passion for telling others about it.

It’s funny, though – when my to-do list is small and my time is great, I won’t get diddly-squat accomplished. It feels as if I have all the time in the world, and all the time in the world doesn’t necessarily light a fire under my brain’s butt. It may look like I’m procrastinating when I wait until the day of to start and complete something, but I’m waiting around until my brain finds that “sweet spot” – that moment in time when the matter becomes urgent enough to motivate me to move.

One thing our tribe struggles with is accurately assessing how much time any given activity will take. I know now that I grossly underestimate that, so I toss out how long I think something will take me and multiply it by five. That’s what I go with and it’s pretty dead-on. There’s a fine line between using our powers for good and using our powers to stress ourselves, and those around us, with our gorgeous chaotic energy uselessly focused on the deadline instead of the road there.
