Focus. Oh, if only I could! Maybe that’s the reason I love lensbabies so much — I’m all over the place just like your eyes in a photo when the focus is weak or soft.<\/p>\n
Whether it’s because of adult-onset ADHD (is there such a thing?) or because I’m pulled in seven different directions at any given point in the day… Whatever the cause, I have a very hard time seeing a project through to completion. That lensbaby portfolio? Yeah, still working on it. That e-mail to Somerset Publications? Yep, still working on it. I give myself deadlines, I work for a limited amount of time, and then I wander off to something else. The laundry needs folding, the dishes have to be cleared so there is room for the dinner set, Tommy needs new shoelaces and I know we have a set somewhere in this drawer (or is it this one?) My mind is racing ahead to the next thing: the next crises, the next fire, the next need.<\/p>\n
I really need all these balls to come down out of the air because I can’t keep up the juggling any longer. But I can’t imagine that it will happen anytime soon. So does focusing on one thing at a time really help? <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
