Hey everyone. Looking back at the last year of work the one thing that bothers me the most is my own inconsistency in work. I go through these very silly cycles in which I overwork myself, then am burntout and do nothing for an entire month, and then overwork myself again. Additionally I start too many projects at once, and then do not finish any at all because I work at 4 things at the same time.
A glaring example of this is the last month. I have been working on a video about Neutrality in Europe, A critique of cultural determinism, The Legacies of the ottoman Empire, and Polish-Lithuanian-Ukrainian shared history, all at the same time... and in the end I didn't get anything done at all. For a year I have also now worked on a long series on the history of the Netherlands, bought over 8000 pages worth of history books, and am not getting anywhere.
So I am going to put a stop to this unorganised chaos. I have a friend who used to work in business management. He is now making a youtube channel in which he wants to teach people economics. He noticed my awful chaos. And he is going to take a position of basically being my "boss". He will take charge of my work process, he will command me what to do, he will be setting me deadlines and he will try to prevent me from collapsing into chaotic unorganised messes again. In return I will be promoting his youtube channel on mine.
I hope through this change this awful mess that has been building up in backlogs and disorganisation of content-creation will finally resolve itself, and I will be able to bring you more and better content, faster, and on time.
