My productivity the past few weeks has oscillated from hyper-focused to doing nothing all afternoon to getting every task checked off my list to deciding to take a day off.
I feel guilty while not working but can’t seem to find the inner strength to get up off my ass and write up an email or work on a presentation.
My job is flexible enough that it allows for these ups and downs but sometimes I wished there was a little more structure so that I didn’t float adrift for too long.Â
Unconsciously, I compensate for my lackadaisical attitudes by having the energy and concentration that crosses off to-do’s like it’s my last day on earth.
As spring time approaches, I feel a sense of new beginnings coming. The cold periods seem to be ending and with them, my laziness and lack of motivation.
I spent hours cleaning out my closet today, getting rid of items I’ve owned since high school and haven’t worn since college. There is space in my wardrobe that I didn’t know could exist, since it’s always overflowed with pieces that should’ve been donated long ago.Â
I’m hopeful that with this renewed energy at home, the space will feel lighter and there will be more room for growth.
I can feel my career starting to gear me towards places I wasn’t aware I’d enjoy, and Monday doesn’t feel like a drag for once.Â
The dishes are clean, the laundry is folded, and the bedsheets are nice and fresh.
Never thought I’d say this but I’m excited to see what Monday brings.
Um beijo,
