Sorry but getting a good glass or little tchotchke from a bar is the most fulfilling exhilarating experience

this is a rule i like to employ for myself, as a chronic procrastinator, mostly in regards to my knitting but also for many other things in life: job applications, finishing a book, framing something, etc. These things become big projects in our mind, in need of completion, usually making them into these large and daunting monsters! The shame and guilt we put our ourselves and our procrastinations is so toxic and unhelpful, so instead of having these things sitting around reminding us of our inability to complete them, just get rid of it entirely. Put the project away, completely out of sight, throw our the little craft, put the book on the bookshelf. these time limits are not meant to apply pressure or increase urgency but like an expiration date, like closing all your tabs on your computer but IRL. If i’ve had a project sitting around unfinished for more than a couple months, a year, etc. no matter how much I like it and know i could finish it, i take it apart, throw it out, whatever. if it is meant to be you can always start it again, from a place of mental clarity and renewed enthusiasm! Don’t add it to your physical and mental load, just get rid of it 💖
