The Gal, Feeling Emo (Sorry all!)
Feb. 6th, 2006 10:32 amI couldn't sleep last night. I was stressed and wired (something about sleeping for 4 hours in the afternoon) so I ended up lying in the hallway, admiring my books and petting the cat.
D was naturally concerned. It was 2:30 am. I usually go to bed by 11 at the latest. We ended up talking, and I finally worked out that I was feeling very unmotivated at work. Aren't we all? I'm just bogged down with enormous projects, all of about the same importance. There's nothing that I can do and actually get a feeling of accomplishment from at work, so I'm unmotivated and that is transferring to being unmotivated at home as well.
To combat this, I'm going to make a short list of major milestones for the next few months, with due dates. Hopefully that will force me to manage my spare time better, instead of just sitting in front of the TV. I'll also make a list of the things that need to get done every week.
( Lists )
No more lazy unmotivation for me!
Edited to add: Is it bad that I feel just making the list is an accomplishment?
