For once, I played 2K14 instead of farming VC. I sank a few hours and it's like the whole day is gone. At least I made progress in two of my careers, one as a center and the other as a small forward. I'd say my time was evenly split between NeoGAF and NBA 2K14. Certainly not a whole lotta production going on.
There's only one week left in this month, so I'm going to set my foot down and establish goals to be completed before the month's end. I discovered this new show, a drama called Tokyo Toy Box about Japanese game development. I'm already inspired since I myself am afflicted by the disease of creativity versus rational project management, as evidence by my numerous uncompleted stories.
The fact that I've been able to keep up with these Event Logs is a miracle. It means what I adopt is sticking. I do find myself more willing to put my mind to the task lately. I just have to keep at it, keep hacking, until it becomes a part of my foundation.
I'd really like to retire my 360, and it'd only take a day to finish it, but something is holding me back. This is the kind of thing I want to get rid of--this lack of motivation.
I once tried to schedule every hour of my day. It didn't work, because you can't schedule for "fun," and my predilection for indulgence throws everything out of whack. It's important to set aside a generous amount of time for slack, but at the same time, maintain a sense of strict adherence. It's definitely a balancing act.
I realize that I shouldn't divvy up too many tasks for a single day. When I do something, I like to go full concentration mode. It's probably best I set aside days for one thing. I also need a flex option, an alternative if I'm not feeling up to the task. Sometimes I set myself up for something, and I totally do not feel like doing it. Some things are just a matter of effort, but others are a matter of timing and inspiration.
I won't lay out my whole life plan here though. I'll create that document separately and reference for personal use.
My body stills feels sore from yesterday's run. My right foot in particular has a knot I can't get rid of. Massaging helps temporarily, and I kinda wanna go out and get a professional foot rub. But then I get flashbacks to my last massage where my body was wrecked to hell, and I think better of it. I should be mostly recovered by next Tuesday when I plan to run again.
Time to finish my day off with Tokyo Toy Box and Pokemon.
