8 exams coming
So yes I have 8 exams coming and I've been stuying but not enough. I feel like the serious work needs to start, it needs to start. Not sure though exactly though how I mean, I know how but I'm feeling lazy because I still have a week and a half. I actually do have afew housekeeping tasks with school too, yes I do. So I know where to start but I'm still in the slow inertial phase, where my inactivity has lead me to a stand still ha.
I want to take a moment to describe this stage though, it's nice pleasant, pleasant to just relax and just surf the internet, to be relaxed to do nothing. The costs of having to study more later just don't seem that real right now, all the work just seems so distant 10 days feels like 10 reallly really long days. But I've been here before and something inside me even though it's not able to really be heard that well at the moment, knows it knows. It knows to let go of the safety and just start moving forward towards my ambition to let go of my limits and get to work. To finish things to get to work it's time.
Motivation guys?

"Deadlines are closer than
"Deadlines are closer than they appear" , so you only have 9 days away. Those 9 days will go so fast, not because time has change, but because once they are gone... they are gone.
Hopefully you don't wait until the pressure sets in, and your adrenaline kicks in... then you're going to stress out mad. It would be like gambling, and in this case I don't think that would be wise "8" exams! You might be able to focus on a limited amount, but you might do horrible on the others. You just have to start as soon as you can, and don't stop.
Only you can do it. Only you will suffer the consequences.
interesting icemountainguy37
the way you describe that nice, pleasant idle surfing... made me think.
I think i *used* to feel that way. But since my life has been unmanageable for decades, i think that has almost all gone away. When i procrastinate, i know i am, and i feel guilty the whole time. It still might be a quiet voice in the background, but it casts a pallor over my whole experience so i can't really enjoy it. It's "hanging over my head."
So much so that when i am on vacation, or i legitimately have time off to relax, i am so in the habit of feeling guilty that sometimes i can not stop. Fortunately, sometimes i can.

I like that: "knows it knows"
I think i know that feeling, and if it's the same thing, we talk about that here as my wiser self, or my higher self.
If so, then i do think your higher self is telling you the truth.
Seems like you've been doing some good insight there, icemountainguy37 :D
