Reprioritizing My Goals

If you’re a regular reader of this blog, you’ve probably noticed that I haven’t been posting very much this month. As I’ve mentioned before, I recently moved to a new state, and I just started a new job. I didn’t mention that in my industry, 50 hour work weeks are the norm, so it doesn’t leave much free time after work.

On top of my new responsibilities at the job, I’m still trying to finish up some work for grad school. In order to graduate this semester, I have to finish writing my thesis and fly back to defend it by the beginning of March. That means I have about a month left to finish everything up.

I’ve come upon the realization that I simply don’t have enough time to work 50 hours a week, blog daily, and finish my thesis at the same time, so I regret to inform my readers that updating this blog daily isn’t one of my top priorities right now. In order to finish my thesis by the deadline, I’m going to have to spend less time blogging and more time writing my thesis.

While I finish up my thesis, I’m going to shoot for blogging 3 times a week. This number may go up or down depending on how things go the next couple of weeks. Once I’m done with my thesis, I plan to resume blogging on a daily basis. Ideally, I’d have time to do everything I want to do and not have to cut down on anything, but my body usually jumps in and tells me it needs sleep.
