I hear you. A case of the ONTS can suck the life out of you. I recently had to let go of some design work that really wasn't aligned with my vision. I immediately felt more rested and alive, I didn't worry about how to make up for the money I would be missing out on, and I went out and had some fun. And what came out of honoring myself, relaxing and having more fun was finding new clients and working on project I truly had fun working on. Slowing down, honoring oneself, and trust it will all be ok can be the best thing to do for our creative minds.
I'm with ya on this, it's a bit like SOS (Shiny Object Syndrome). I have to mentally focus on being focussed. I see another window of opportunity and get distracted from what I should be concentrating on, my core business. And yeah, working around ever changing family commitments can challenge your focus to the max.
Let's see who makes it this far. If you see this, leave a comment and I'll send you a free sticker pack (while supplies last).

Honoring oneself is a great phrase, thanks Bina.

Hey thanks, Ron, and sorry for getting back to this late.
Thanks, Julie. You're the best.
