Split in two or more pieces

Ever thought you’ve taken too much to handle at once? That there isn’t enough time in a day to do things? You wish you had more time. You almost need to split yourself into two or more pieces to do it all.

Sometimes, I think I have too many things to think about and don’t have time to concentrate on all of them. I’ve had so many other things on my mind lately that I have had no time to blog. In addition to personal things, I have different social media accounts on Instagram to keep up with. Before, I had two, but now I have three for various purposes.

I use one in English for personal use. The other two are in Finnish and are for the graphic design and photography business. A few weeks ago, I started a faceless marketing account where I would sell digital products. It makes me think I took too many at once. One of the accounts doesn’t get the attention it deserves. I’ve been focusing on the new account recently. I was tired of waiting for someone to get in touch on the older business account. I found an easier way to make money than trying to find clients. I don’t really want to do what many other graphic designers do, like visual identity. Actually, I’m split between what I want to do because I want to do many things. I’ve got to get some income somewhere, so why not try to sell digital products? I want to use my graphic design and photography skills to help people.

If you organise your time, you can get more things done during the day. The main thing is that you make time to relax. What you didn’t have time to do today, you can continue tomorrow. There is a time and place for everything.

Day 22

Some trash talk about the snow disappearing. Yesterday, there was snow, but now it’s gone. Sometimes, the weather forecast is correct, but sometimes it’s not. In Finland, the weather is unpredictable, regardless of season. There would have been at least some snow, so it would have been white. If you want to see snow, you must go up north. But that’s not a reason to spend money on travelling. It’s dull when there is no snow, especially at Christmas. I won’t be home at Christmas but there is no snow in Tallinn either.

You don’t know what shoes to wear when the weather changes. If you wear winter boots and it rains, you ruin them. You can slip and hurt yourself if you wear sneakers and it snows. If the snow would stay, it would be easier to choose footwear. No one knows when there will be snow here again. The forecast says it’s going to be plus Celsius in some days. You would think it’s Autumn and not Winter. It does dampen the Christmas cheer a little bit when there is no snow, but you live with it.

Is this Christmas or an ordinary day? You tell me. It was taken today, and that’s no trash talk.
