Blogging every day for 30 days

For about 5 years I have felt increasingly less able to focus and come up with original thoughts. Whenever I have an idea for any kind of creative or technical project I think about it intensely for days, consult Wikipedia, watch a dozen YouTube videos about the subject, maybe give it a try for days or weeks intermittently but ultimately it goes nowhere. I go back to my usual routine of having an idea, going full hyper-focus for a short time and then abandoning it leaving me feeling unfulfilled and full of self-doubt.

A fresh look

The old blog wasn’t exactly inspiring me so I decided to go with a more stripped down template and minimal style. I tend to hilariously overcomplicate things so I’m getting the bare minimum done and then leaving the rest up to Future Shane.
