For a while now, I have been planning out my next venture. For about a month or so, I had been sure that it would have taken quite some time to get going. It is a website, by the by, that I plan to launch using that Django framework that is all the rage with Python web developers.
A month ago, I didn't have any experience writing websites and the like. A month later, I finished some introductory learning modules on HTML and CSS. I've yet to touch the Javascript module on that Mozilla Development Network, since it mostly covers topics that would be of interest only to a complete novice to coding. That being said, I have skimmed the module a bit. And I feel like I can get by making my site without it. I am aware that it is an audacious claim, one that many would be quick to refute, especially considering I spent only a month learning web development.
In any case, I am now in a position where I feel ready to write a rough draft of this website. I have sketches and drafts of what it will look like on-hand. But now, I sort of don't want to go through with it. Having a goal in my life just feels comforting. Without it, I would feel totally empty. I know this from personal experience going to school and so forth. In any case, is it weird to not want to continue work on that goal, because you fear finishing it?
On an unrelated note, is it normal to still be wearing surgical masks? I wear mine mostly to avoid letting people see my mouth whenever I pass them by; it increases the social distance between us, if you know my meaning. I also wear it to avoid sick co-workers. One of mine coughs a lot. I cannot be arsed to catch any illnesses, when I have been healthy for two years now, barring a week two years ago I spent with Wuhan fever.
Anyway, is it weird to not want to work on a goal because you're afraid that once you're done with it, you'll have nothing left to fill the space it once occupied?
I must have these answers.
