Now that really got me buzzing!)) Four hours I didn’t leave the computer. No tea with buns for you, no trips to the bathroom. What became a revelation for me:

1. Laziness is an indicator that the brain doesn’t understand the benefit of certain steps. 2. That BEING and HAVING are different hypostases. And if you act out of HAVING, you can run into disappointment and a loss of energy. (Maybe the desire to have is a spell?) 3. That a GOAL should be seen as a metric-direction, not as an end in itself. 4. If I’m doing some nonsense, I need to look and analyze what emotion I want to get in the end. And use that understanding constructively. 5. That the SMART technique only works for short-term goals.

And now my subjective review. For the last month my affairs were stalling, because what I used to do stopped captivating me, and I hadn’t yet decided on a new thing. Hence the apathy and laziness. I couldn’t wake up before 9 a.m., I didn’t have enough energy. Today I woke up at 7 a.m. and didn’t want to sleep; I wanted to get up and get down to business. I got up, wrote out all the unfinished tasks and started doing them.

What’s new for me, as a loner-introvert, is teamwork. And it’s not even about the phoenixes, it’s about overcoming myself. Some kind of drive has appeared.
