If you’re anything like me, you take on too many projects.
I’ve always done this. And when I say “always”, I’m not only referring to my adult, professional life. Since I was old enough to want to do anything at all, I’ve wanted to do too many things, and I’ve tried to do them all at once:
- Learn to play guitar and start a band.
- Write stories, novels, and screenplays.
- Draw and make animated films.
- Study science and mathematics.
- Become an architect and design buildings.
- Program computers and make video games.
- Get married, raise a family.
You know. Learn Japanese, go live in Japan for a year or so. Climb Mount Fuji.
As a child, I was surrounded by love and encouragement. The adults in my life told me I could do anything I set my mind to, anything I wanted. I took their encouragement literally and without moderation.
