I'm back to asking what's important for my life to feel enriched.
Looking at my tools, rereading my Deep Work summaries (and likely reading "Digital Minimalism"), and trying to clean up my files somewhat makes me want to trash everything and start over.
But there's good stuff there that I want to get back to and everything that's happened since last March is keeping me from reclaiming any motivation to touch any of it.
Do I let it go, stick it in a virtual cardboard box and start over? What comes with me if I Konmari the shit out of my digital/intellectual life?
I want a single interface, a single pipeline, but my interests and "audiences" don't support that in a way that "protects" either my career or my personal life.
I'm an author, a software engineer, and then I'm also just me. Three separate voices, three separate streams of thought and not much in the way of overlap.
I would merge them all, but something tells me that's not wise. I have a reputation among the first two versions of me that needs to be maintained to some degree.
Bah. This is a perpetual struggle for me that means I end up not actually doing much of anything on any of these fronts from pure indecision.
I trust the answer will present itself eventually.
