The terrible idea 3, Episode Three

Well. I managed to update three comics in a week, which was my goal since last summer, naming the plan as "The terrible idea", which was waking up at 3:30/4:00AM to draw, make, and upload my webcomics. It was essentially a schedule in the first place.

Yeah, of course I wasn't able to update three times per week, because of the lack of organization, my body trying to get used to it, and the insane amount of shit I had to deal with was unbearable at the same time I was doing Purity Three Years Back. I'm pretty sure if I've had a Whiplash-like mindset in that time (which is basically go all the way surpassing your limits) I'd finish it a few weeks instead of 3 months.

Now, I was able to update my three comics in a week. And I feel happy for the work I've done, very happy, I think I didn't feel that happiness in a long time. I think that I've figured it out, the moral of all this chaos and everything. I have a confession to make: most of my previous days were wasted in playing videogames, even in summer where I was "busy" trying to finish Hyperdimension Neptunia reBirth 3 or playing as space Hitler in Stellaris. And sure, you can have fun whenever you want, it's good.

But if you believe that your work has value, you know you gotta sacrifice that fun play and put it into something more productive in that work of yours.

To give you a quick idea on how I learned to deal with this chaos this week: I still play videogames, through I'm becoming more strict and put that play into 15-30 minutes and then time to draw.

Personally I try to avoid Stellaris because it's a time-consuming game. I mean, in Civilization V you've got "One more turn", but this game doesn't have turns so you say "One more hour", and then one more hour, one more hour because there's so much stuff to do DAMN THIS GAME IS AWESOME BUT DONT GET ADDICTED SON

Get well, everyone!
