If I'm being honest, I have a lot of those ketchup bottles in my life that I just can't bring myself to touch, no matter how easy.
One time I lost $36,000 because I thought about answering an email that would have taken me 10 seconds and put it off at least 100 times over the course of a few months.. a ketchup bottle of great proportions. I'm not even sure I learned anything.
Right now my big thing is a project I'm working on, that's the answer to my life's problems, and day after day, week after week, month after month I just refuse to sit down and work on it.
Am I trying soooo hard though? Or am I just scared, frozen in fear? It doesn't feel like I'm trying. If I don't feel like doing it then I don't, and not feeling like doing the thing you feel you want to do is a very depressing thing.
The dishes are easy because I know I can do them and I won't let many people down if I fail... But my project, if I fuck that up halfway like I probably would, well then everyone is going to hate me especially myself.
It's a ketchup bottle alright. ;)
