A job can be a distraction from what you really want to be doing.

I’d sit in meetings when I had a job and daydream about writing. I couldn’t wait to get home and write a tweet or connect with others writers.

Only my leftover time got given to my passion for writing. Every other minute was spent running from one meeting to the next, while time flew by. It made me depressed at times. To my friends and family I could often be cranky.

The crankiness came from the frustration of not being able to sit down & write. I always had a time limit, which screwed with the quality of my work. I couldn’t fall down the rabbit hole of a topic and then come up for air 8 hours later.

All my work always had 1–2 hour time constraints.

A time constraint helped me get work done. But the quality of work never quite became exceptional. I’d try to revisit work I’d already started later on, but the thrill of the moment and the excitement for the topic had vanished.

The best time to act on an idea is when it inspires you in the moment.

Always coming back to your best ideas that light you up with passion, because you’ve got a pain-in-the-ass job in the way, is no way…
