Hi all!

It's almost a bit embarrassing to post so early after saying that I'm going on a Steemit diet. However, in addition to prioritizing other things ahead of Steemit, I'm also fighting like crazy to become more productive, to simplify and not be a slave to perfectionism. This art is a small victory in that matter, I got this done in a significantly quicker time frame that I usually would. My goal was to have it done in 45 minutes, but it took about double. Still, it's progress and I hope to do better next time.

Working with a timer going is a good way to kick my behind into high gear. I'm doing whatever it takes to balance things out.

Another note, even if I some how manage to keep posting every day, I still want to have 3 more weekly dolphin delegations. I'm not going to go back on my plan. ![-.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmYwjzBMuTEDDuSNqSTh2xqriHmbxz4s48o7nb5A5nHfGF/-.png)

Clients are WEIRD

The same morning I was deciding to take a break, I got a new assignment, it was supposed to kick off yesterday, but it's already delayed... Another reason I'm posting today. I could decide to prioritize clients ahead of Steemit, but my clients will NEVER make me the priority. So, the tug-of-war between clients and Steemit will continue. It's a tough balancing act.

I'm going to make a post soon about the steps I'm taking to reduce burnout and balance work/Steemit, who knows, I might offer an idea or two that may be useful to someone.
