So now that I’m officially and actually done with school and vacation I find it hard to sit down and work. I’ve come to the conclusion that I need a rigid schedule. I need to enforce a time for eating, sleeping and working at the very least.
I have learned about some of my bad-habits concerning work. I tend to work very intensely at something until I’m too tired to continue. However, I keep pushing myself until I become frustrated and then cranky because I’m not making headway. My goal is to stop myself before that point- take a break before I burn out.
I also have learned the value of having friends. I think at one point I isolated myself for too long thinking I needed to focus on work when I really just needed to socialize I hate to say it, but I was so happy to see and talk to someone other than Justin and my parents! Ah, such is life.
Haha, it’s good that you figured it out a month into your unemployment. I didn’t realize that til now. But I still find it hard to pull away from work. Currently, my out is The Sims 2, but it HAD to occupy my life a few hours at a time, so that’s not that good of a stress relief.
