You can do anything. But if you try to do everything, you'll end up doing nothing.

Mouse Potato's log, entry 1, yamdate 54.224.

I'm going to keep this one brief, because:

  1. I intend to take a break starting tomorrow
  2. This is my first blog post
  3. If you are reading this, you probably don't think you have a lot of time. (Spoiler alert: You're wrong.)

This post was supposed to be a post about me making an absolutely audacious and arguably asinine attempt at learning SQL better by making a program that can parse and execute SQL commands.

However, I realised I was trying to do too many things at once.
I wanted to make an SQL parser, an SQL command runner, and possibly some kind of user interface to pack this all up with.

And alongside this, I wanted to start working on a project portfolio, a resume, a personal website, a major modding project, a time management tool, and at least five different video game projects.

In the end, I barely managed to begin with the SQL project.

And I've decided to scrap it - at least for now - because I realised I need to think about fewer projects - ideally a binary (0 or 1) amount - at a time in order to get more done.

And I'm guessing you either have a similar problem. (Or you managed to solve it, in which case I'd appreciate some advice in the comments... does dev.to have a comment section? I'll have to check after posting this.)

That should be it for now. See you next week at the soonest, best of luck to all of you, and thanks for all the fish taking the time to read this.

There is, in fact, a comment section on dev.to. That's good to know.
