@alexgmichael yoooo I saw that haha appreciate you. updated my SS bio to say the same, since I'm spending my time there. i've pretty much given up on X :(
Not centering your life around work is hard but possible. Loved this from Cormac McCarthy:
"I always knew that I didn't wanna work."
Oprah: "How did you manage that? Most people would like to do that."
"Well, you have to be dedicated. Yeah. But it was, it was my number one priority. And, uh, that you didn't wanna have a nine-to-five job. Yeah. I thought you, you're just here once. Life is brief and to have to spend every day of it doing what somebody else wants you to do is not the way to live it."
"And I don't have any advice for anybody on how to go about that. Except if you, if you are really dedicated, you can probably do it.
Oprah: "So you have worked at not working."
"Absolutely. It's, yeah, it's number one priority."
@_coleschafer bought meet cute a while back and literally just read the first chapter not two hours ago. been in a creative rut lately, so planning to fire up a substack and go through the prompts starting with this one. cheers cole!
Sometimes I am sleepy and I think, โmaybe Iโm not cut out for this, maybe I should just do my job and be satisfied, not everyone needs to write or make videos.โ
Then sometimes I am well rested and and Iโm like, โI am metatron, the voice of the most high, the golden god of content creation! Weep before my words, tremble before my visage, stand in awe of my art!โ
Anyway this is a PSA reminding you to get enough sleep.
