being a craftsman

Waking up at 5 and going straight to the TV. That’s not going to take me anywhere.

Where is my motivation lately?

Yeah, I’m still adjusting to waking up at 5. It’s not easy. Especially when I take an allergy pill, which makes me sleepy. But I have my goals. I need to collect the tomatos. Lately, I’m not  doing it and that’s not good. Why bother to wake up at 5? I need to get my groove back. I need to get back my sense of urgency.

Last thing I want to do is spend the first half an hour of doing nothing!

That’s one tomato I can have!

Like I said, I blame it on the allergy related pills. I ordered new ones which should not make me that drowsy. I also need to stay more disciplined.

One thing that I am not doing lately is writing. I almost stopped writing. What’s going on? 

I’m only 34 — soon will be, actually. I’m not 54. That’s 20 years away. I need to have the sense of urgency to get better. That’s the only way I can still feel like I’m The Pragmatic Craftsman. Lately, I’m not!
