I can totally relate to what you said: "doing more and more detailed and unnecessary research rather than the risk-taking forging forward that I need to do."

Solidarity in finding recovery.

@movingalong

Mole - 27 Nov 2013 - 8:58pm

Thank you movingalong. I am trying to get myself to be mindful when this happens so that I can take myself in hand - but so often it is when I am tired or anxious. Researching seems to supply its own energy and sense of purpose, however spurious that purpose might be.

i think I need to get back to pomodoro basics: planning with them, logging them and keeping notes each time I am deflected.

all strength to you, dear movingalong - any insights greatly appreciated!

 

Mole's check in

Mole - 26 Nov 2013 - 8:26pm

Okay, i have faffed this morning - l can't blame tiredness. Thank you dear jalla for a lovely and apt starter - (I printed yesterday's Dr Seuss out so have that as well to guide me) - because my faffing was about doing more and more detailed and unneccessary research rather than the risk-taking forging forward that I need to do.
