I Want Too Many Things

For ten years, I called it a discipline problem.

I constantly find myself in a research rabbit hole. It could be a digital product I think I could build in a couple of hours, or maybe how to write a custom skill for Claude, or how to actually make sense of that one concept I half-understood in a podcast two months ago. The research never ends. And I love the research. I love finding out. I love the moment when a piece clicks into place.

I live in the research.

When it’s time to actually do the thing, it’s fun the first few times. Then I need something new.
