What is your temporal persistence? Like if you have some project you are putting off while trying to mull over a solution, how long do you generally keep that in mind until you find a solution or it fades from memory, replaced by something more productive. I’m not really talking about consciously shifting focus. I’m talking about the point when a project gets shelved unintentionally; you still hope to get back to it but usually do not. What is your temporal persistence like? Perhaps you complete every project, meaning you are less abstracted and that is fine too.

    I can’t go in the outdoor closet by my kitchen without seeing 100 projects I’ve been meaning to get to. I’m creative and have shitloads of junk I’ve found or bought at thrift stores. Some date back several years.

      I’m in almost the exact same position. Next year is the start of my project to start making videos out of my collection of gadgets and the idea is to organize them as I go through them.
