Night Thoughts

It’s the middle of the night as I write this. My mind was racing, and when that happens, there’s no point in trying to sleep. My tried and trusted technique is to get up, go downstairs and write some sort of cathartic blog post or future business practice in an attempt to place the anxieties lingering in my mind into words so that they become simple objectives which can be tackled a bit at a time.

Anxieties always appear at this time of year when things slow down to a crawl, and depsite the fact that I’ve amassed a considerable war-chest, the worries about what’s ahead always manifest themselves at 2am.

The loss of my main client isn’t as extreme as I thought it might be - a well-timed phone call assured me that I’m still shooting the prestige properties for them, which is honestly what I’m best at and what I love to do. I can relax a bit now, and get on with selling my old video gear to swap it for the medium format kit I’m hoping to utilise in the new year.

So it’s back to bed - sleep well folks.
