shazrasha | Learning To Curb My Helpful Side

...Is something I have to try and do. That and offering gifts I haven't made yet.

I seem to be offering slices of my time that in truth I don't actually have, at least not in abundance. Unless I take drastic measures and turn hermit for a week.

It's hard to admit but yes I am sometimes too helpful for my own good. I offer my services without thinking how much time I actually have. This is not to say I don't enjoy each and every thing I do, it's just that I forget how fast I get swamped.

To give you an idea of how bad I can be, I offered a drawing as a present three years ago. It has yet to be painted. The miniature that I offered for someone's birthday has been modeled but no paint has come near it. Clothes for a soft toy, designed but not made (and I've had it a year).

Add to all this that I have agreed to make a kilt and a website for schaffhausen. The first was a learning experience in itself. But it should now be known that should anyone else need a kilt, it's not that tricky to make and I can make them to any size and cheaper than buying a real one. (It will also be quicker now I know how) You just need to decide how valuable you think my time is. ;)

The website will also increase my knowledge of website building so I am happy to do it especially as it is a project I have a stake in. Or rather a beak.

But all this is on top of the innummerable projects I set myself - some that I have not touched in ages but really want to finish.
So I ask those that know me, seriously, Save me from myself! ;)

EDIT: Alternatively actually prodding me and giving me deadlines works wonders - These have benefited from that - Maelstrom and The Fallen.
