As an artist, a human being, a woman of this planet (pause for dramatic effect); I am bursting with creative energy. It is this amazing impetus that drives you to tell stories and express yourself; but, alas, I suffer from something that many artists suffer from either their whole lives or from time to time.  And that is execution.

I walk around, day in and day out, with a gazillion ideas in my head.  I speak into the handy little feature on my BlackBerry that records your thoughts on the spot or I write them down as fast as possible before they escape me and another idea enters my mind.  That’s just it…I have a phone AND a notebook full of ideas but nothing going on to show for it.

Many of my agent “friends” consider actors like me lazy or entitled.  But, I see the truth of the matter…and that truth is: my left brain sucks.

In recent years, I have since discovered that I am “half a person.”  I am so strongly right brained that I have such a hard time doing “normal” things (i.e., schedules, to-do lists,  being organized).

I have spent a many of hours and dollars at The Container Store, telling myself this is the day/week/year that I will be on top of my stuff!  I have tried the prettiest calenders, the practical schedules and the fancy organizational systems, only to find myself right back where I started.

Even with blogging, I can imagine the greatest topics of which to discuss but when I sit to write them: nothing.  Which brings me to this article now.  I figured I would just start with the truth.
