The problem with a solo working life can be the lack of external deadlines or the pressure to perform from a hot breath down the back of the neck. As I said in the post, I'm a planner - but we planners like to plan, and plan, and plan. GOYA thinking makes sure there's a point to it all, and a call to action that makes it purposeful AND done. I do love the <a href="http://shearinglayers.com/keeping-promises/the-cult-of-done-manifesto/" rel="nofollow">Cult of Done Manifesto</a> too. Do check it out if you haven't already. Particularly the poster version. Thanks Taylor, for the original inspiration and for stopping by.

I've been trying to introduce the idea into my general life, just to keep moving, creating and building. The "perfect" time is a fallacy, a figment of our imagination, and GOYA is one way to push us toward getting things done instead of planning to get things done. And thanks, again, of course :) Thanks for taking the time to read and think; I particularly like your GOYA management style.
