Success and Shit

Success (at least in terms of "completed") creative projects requires at least these things

- A decent idea
- Energy/bullheadedness
- Execution
- Organization
- Luck

One or more of these components has been missing from everything I've tried in recent years. The ideas are good (at least good relative to my tastes or better than anything I've tried in the past), once I get a few talented folks together to help me with a track, their skills led to successful execution of most of the material we tried.

I've got energy, but it's the wrong kind. That is the big part of my current problem. I keep writing/starting new things and can't find a way to stop - hence this undermines the energy and organization needed to finish and release the material that is ready to be consumed by tens of people.


Wednesday February 1 Newtered or Is It Newturd?

Newt's toast in Florida but he says he's not done. I'm sort of done with him. Not going to take anything from those who love him or hold out hope of him being the R's nominee, but I'm through following the daily ins and outs of his campaign.

Swafford and I took the boys to see Huskie basketball. Bad basketball, but not as bad as I thought...and more importantly it was a fun night out with friends.
