Merry Christmas To Struggling Entrepreneurs!

It's been insane inside my head lately. I have so much going on. A hundred things I'm working on, truthfully three projects that I have a ton a passion for, and want to spend every day all day long on them, but I have life responsibilities, that I certainly must do. The day job, the bills, the reading to my blind mother. The responsibility list is way longer then the three things I have passion for.

All these things start the swirling inside my brain. It's like I need to shut down and force myself to lay in bed netflixing for hours, but I don't and the insanity spills out on my husband and kids. Mostly the husband. 

When I talk about struggling entrepreneurs, I don't necessarily mean 'struggling to make your startup work' cause that's a given. I often mean the way we are wired in the brain and how "normal people" interact with us. We are not anything like them and this causes a big conflict. It usually makes us look for sure insane, and them more normal.

What are my three things I want to do?
  1. Continue learning code on Freecodecamp.com
  2. Continue attending Toastmasters, writing and giving speeches and a lot more.
  3. Bring and old product back to life.
None of which I've been able to dedicate any quality time to. It kills me, but I have to do those three things as it eases my pain. The pain of being a struggling entrepreneur. I have to do things that lead me to create. It's the only way the constant torture inside me can be satisfied. 

Here is my present for you! Totally loving this man Michael Kiwanuka.
