Navigating the Seasonal Shift: How Changes in Weather Impact Productivity

In this episode of my vlog, I'm pretty frustrated. Summer is almost over, and I just feel like I haven't accomplished anything. I need something to change so I look more at how to improve what I do, promoting music with my podcast and latest album.

As the seasons change, the transition from summer to fall can be particularly challenging for me. I'm frazzled just thinking about it and the mental toll of shifting weather patterns.

The sudden drop in temperature from 90 to 60 degrees made me even question my progress. this summer. Did I do anything? Did I improve anything?" prompted me to reassess my goals set during the warmer months.

I think about my projects, from listing vintage books to enhancing my band Lorenzo's Music YouTube presence. I've been trying to improve views to get that channel monetized.

So as seasonal changes disrupt my feelings of productivity, I try to look at my tasks and recalibrate and stay focused on long-term goals.

I have a vintage Candy Land game from 1955 by Milton Bradley and I was about to sell it so I thought I would add it to my personal art history course concept I've been doing .
