I have a confession to make.
95% of the time I’m on it. I’m either writing, connecting, researching, learning, or doing something to better myself and my life. But, there are some days when I don’t get a whole lot done.
I’m not necessarily a “Type A” naturally driven and productive person. I’ve just become that way over time. Sometimes that old me that wants to lay around and do nothing comes out and shows its ugly face, and it rains all over my otherwise flowing exuberant productivity parade.
Don’t feel bad if that’s you too from time-to-time. There are times when everyone has their off days, even me.
What’s important is that you don’t let it happen too often. Most of the time you’ll take a break from your fast-paced life, then get right back on your horse and go back to getting things done.
You can continue with Cody’s original post here but first, before you dismiss this as being entirely inappropriate to Elefriends, think about your journey towards better mental health as your task, what it is that you are trying to be productive about.
For example: The longer you don’t do something, the more likely you are not going to do it.
That’s not just about work life that is life life.
Is the mending pile impossible to see over?
Clean clothes strewn around waiting to be ironed? Things pulled out from the bottom and ironed as needed?
Did you promise to put up that shelf? How long ago was that?
What about painting the front door before it falls down?
Those are examples from my own life. You will, no doubt, have your own which may be nothing to do with physical things around you which are getting you down.
Give the 15-minutes at a time process a try.
