Deadlines! Can’t live with ‘em, can’t live without ‘em! 😅 They always seem to be both a frustration and a necessity. I really can’t imagine getting much done without them, honestly! But they do often force us to streamline our work in ways that makes less space for certain processes.

Deadlines! Can’t live with ‘em, can’t live without ‘em! 😅 They always seem to be both a frustration and a necessity. I really can’t imagine getting much done without them, honestly! But they do often force us to streamline our work in ways that makes less space for certain processes.
What I’ve found is that a lot of my efforts to automate my work because of deadlines can really rob me of the joy of what I do. When that happens, I usually end up asking why I’m doing it anymore at all. I try to keep that in mind and honour the work I love (even if it takes more time) and streamline the rest. I love having systems set up to handle file naming and organizing, for example, while I still choose to use my time on extended research and brainstorming because it connects me more with what I do and how I think.
I feel like the more power we have to automate the things we do, the more we need to be careful to make sure we done automate the joy out of our lives. 😅 I don’t dream of supervising machines and fixing their output, so I try to save the most fulfilling labour for myself.

I like how you tamed robots. And deadlines too. You seems to be good at it, and I like your website. It is a pleasure to have meet you today!
