Stress

I'm not sure if I've mentioned it before in this space, but I've come to realize that stress is the absolute assassin of creativity. As i've gotten older, as my professional duties have become increasingly "important," as the stakes, real or imagined,  have gotten higher; i've noticed that my ability to simply organize my thoughts and put them down on paper has become harder and harder to bring out.
It's quite frustrating.

Other factors maybe at play as well.

Perhaps the Twitter/Facebook lifestyle of just posting in bite-sized bits has led to a situation where I actually think in them too. 

But then again, maybe my attention span has simply shrunk over time like -oh, look at that...
