Cliché

I just can’t seem to do a thing when I don’t know how much I’m going to do or how long I’m going to do it. When do I earn a break? How long of a break? When have I earned some time to relax and get away from it? What is the plan? It’s hard when I don’t have a plan or goal.

 

If I work on a new post I feel like I’m getting something done. I see new words on the page and I feel like I’m having a good outcome. But if I want to tweak a post I’ve already written I feel like I’m not getting that much done. Materially it make not make a lot of difference. It will be a better post but I may not see a lot done. I may only add a few more words or maybe I’ll add a few here and remove a few there and it works out the same. Or maybe I’ll even wind up with fewer words. There’s not a lot materially to show. I seem to not focus on the fact that qualitatively it’s a better post. So I’m judging my outcome on how much quantitatively I’m getting done. I’m focused too much on the outcome.
