The problem with being free

So I've been at it for a while... I was working at the broadcast station, then I got out of there and landed in a marketing agency, doing ads for a respected lamps shop here in PTY. And the work was cool, if a bit repetitive at times, but overall nice. It's the people.

The people I can't seem to digest one way or the other. The kind of people I don't want to work with because it just seems they're there to get by after going through life with doing everything that people consider to be is "living". I hated the place because it just didn't seem like the place people would work at because they thought it was fun or because they even liked it. They just went there to get a paycheck and it just so happened they were good at what they did. Extremely good.

So I got out of the place and into my own business. It's been almost a month and it feels pretty grim at the moment. I walked away from design as I liked it. Haven't checked out what's new in a long time and it just feels like I'm blocked at the worst time possible. There's just no way I can be blocked, but it seems like I am. And I hate some of me for it.

I have a huge list of things to do. And it keeps piling up because I can't seem to concentrate. I don't know what's bothering me or what's keeping me from going forward. I feel like I'm not doing it for me anymore and maybe I'm doing it for others to see and for others to like it. I just don't know.

Anyone out there been in that situation? Any thoughts? Any advice you can give?
