Accountability Post
Hey folks,
Like most Accountability Posts this is a bit of a Humblebrag. I have a lot going on and I believe the meme tells you all you need to know about how my brain works. Like many of us, I get super-excited about something and drop everything I can to work on that...until the next cool thing comes along. Fortunately/unfortunately for me, my brain sees a lot of opportunities and creates a lot of exciting ideas.
What tools and techniques do you all use to both manage your time and to prevent the shiny new thing from keeping you from finishing the shiny but slightly less new thing? My list will give you some idea of the differing scales and timelines for my projects and commitments -- and that doesn't stop me from looking for/creating new thing...
**Short Term, with Deadlines:**
- Prep for my bi-weekly Old Gods of Appalachia Role-Playing Game (Unofficial) on Startplaying; post notes in 's follow-up question from Friday's coffee convo
- Appear on ZealZaddy's Paperbag TTRPG Gameshow (dress/tech: April 7; 1st live: April 21)

**Short term, no deadlines:**

and I'm sure there is stuff I'm missing....
