Degenerating quality.

I tend to think that my entries here have become quite lackluster. Some of this comes from the shear quantity of expression and the inherent challenges of continuous production. The quality would definitely be naturally better if I only wrote when I was more impressed to do so by ideas that really stood out in my mind. I think the practice of continuous production does have the benefit of increasing my quality overall, however, and it does not mean that my best quality level is totally excluded from high-quantity expression... just less common.

I still have a good quantity of interesting things run through my mind throughout the course of any given day. I just need to improve my abilities of clinging on to them when they happen so I can better explore them here on a nightly basis.

Another factor which will no doubt contribute to a lessening of my quality is the simple fact that I am now working way more hours and am forced to be smarter about my sleeping habits in the process. This probably sounds counterintuitive since better timing with my sleep schedule usually produces better results in life, in most normal areas of usefulness. I think, however, because it is induced by the work instead of being personally instigated, that it might not give the positive benefit one would normally assume it would give. Though, in all reality, I am probably just over thinking all of this since I am already pretty exhausted.

It will be a tough summer but the experience should be worth it. I need to make some good changes in my life and I expect this will be an excellent conduit for that.
