Already feel a difference

I wanted to try something different. Every year I notice I never really try and make a difference of my life when I turn another year older because I honestly thing resolutions and goals are a bit stressful and it feels sucky when you fail. And I'm an overachiever so I don't like to fail so I rather just avoid goals. But I really wanted to do something to help my health and something that would actually be easy to form a habit. If anyone of you know me well I have a very short attention span, I have ADD. So my mind likes to wander, but I also like working on multiple things at once because it keeps my brain going. I think I found something that will help me do work, do my drawing, and also help myself a bit. I work on mturk for an hour, I then get up walk around or do some stretches for about 5 minutes, then I go and draw for an hour, do stretches and rinse and repeat. And I can actually see the progress of how much work I got done today and also I feel the progress for my body! And I have only done this for a day! Only 6 hours! My body and knees are in less pain because I am getting up more often and also, I did 170 tasks on mturk and this is my first day back after a week of no working. That is amazing. And with drawing, I finished 6 panel outlines and 2 character coloring. It is Wednesday and I'm already 1/4 of the way done of my webcomic that comes out this Sunday. This is amazing. I think I finally found something I can stick to and it feels great!

Or I might just have an excuse to play sims for an hour before getting back to work on the comics. Huehuehue

I hope you can do it! Schedules are so hard to keep up, but after a while they are apart of a normal way of life!
