I had Monday and Tuesday off, so Saturday night I turned off my brain and spent the rest of my time off playing computer games, finishing the second and third books in the Harry Potter series, and generally just relaxing. One of these days I might even be able to do that without feeling guilty about it or worrying about all the things I should or could be doing.
I’m wondering if these anxious feelings are the result of over commitment—having too many projects going on at once. We’ll see. I’m making a concerted effort to cancel or complete all my current projects before starting anything new. Oddly enough, canceling a project (hint, it’s not canceled unless you’ve deleted it from your hard drive) can be more liberating than finishing one.
