Procrastination and New Goals ~ Palm Desert Photographer

I have to admit I have been procrastinating an awful lot lately.  I don’t know if it is because my boys are on summer break so all I want to do is hang out with them, or it is the heat, or…well…I will have to think about another “or”… later. 😉  I believe that deep down everyone has a little bit of procrastination in them. Whether it is avoiding doing the dishes, reading a book, washing your car, or avoiding work. For me, procrastination comes when it is time to sit and write. I have to admit it is so hard for me to jump on and write a blog post, which really isn’t all that hard when I think about it.  I even have an app on my iPad so I can post from anywhere.  Of course it probably doesn’t help that the app is hidden on the last screen on my iPad.  I do think of things to write and make a list of potential blog posts (including posting client images). But yet I still find other things to do instead. Sometimes those things are business related and sometimes it is just getting sucked into playing Hanging with Friends (no joke I am addicted. I even got Travis, my hubby, hooked). Therefore my new goal is to blog at least twice a week for at least the next month. I am hoping by then it will be a habit.

So here is to a new goal and lots to read…well probably more photos to ooo and ah over and less words to read. 🙂 But blog posts nonetheless.

BEHIND THE LENS

ABOUT Ann

My path here wasn't exactly straight, and I think that's what makes it worth telling.

I wasn't supposed to be a photographer. I was supposed to become a doctor. Neurobiology premed, on track, until my oldest son was diagnosed with epilepsy and life took a hard U-turn. I took a break and enrolled in photography classes I had always wanted to take but never could as a premed. On day two I knew. This was where I was supposed to be. Funny thing is, that analytical, detail-oriented part of me never left. It just shows up differently now, in the way I plan every session, read the light, and pay attention to the moments most people miss. I finished my degree in a year and a half, started my business the following October, and sixteen years later I still believe this is the gift God gave me to give to others. And I don't take that lightly.
