I've been discussing being blocked by overthinking during my expensive therapy sessions. Today my therapist mentioned that I've got strongly developed metacognition. And of course I'm now blocked thinking about this.

At the end of Arrival, Louise realizes she can see her future. She sees her daughter drawing, learning to walk, growing. She sees her daughter's premature death caused by a rare disease.

I hated running. Now I hate it slightly less.

I've always struggled with procrastination. I perform at my best when there's clear deadlines and clear consequences for missing them. I also find it much easier to do anything for someone that's not myself.

It’s been a bit of a soul-searching year for me, I’ve intentionally tried new things out and one of the topics that stuck with me the longest was game development.
