I spend months and years on a project I believe in. I invest all of my emotional energy in striving for perfection. This time, I’ll do it right.
But as soon as it’s completed, the doubts set in. Soon enough, I can’t stand the sight of it. Every time I reopen it, I slam it shut.
Eventually, I’m back at that juncture, realising it is destined only for the bin, deserving of no more time or energy.
I should stick with blogging and jettison all other lofty dreams. Just one more investment to be written off.
