For many years, I had zero issues creating video content and programming for on air and online distribution. Add to that tons of marketing campaigns for area businesses and organizations. Nowadays? I have ideas but lost my drive for follow through. It’s maddening. Mind you, I have shifted day jobs out of necessity but that one has taken quite the dump in its ability to provide the basic needs it was supposed to serve. But it still steals away the time, energy and focus.
Not in a position to just up and walk away and new gigs are not popping at the moment. Anyone else crawl out, over, around this wall? I know it’s only a temporary pit stop but at 46, this shit show is eating me up.
