Past few days #
Well, I couldn't continue the streak.
That's often been the case. There's the initial push. Then a stretch. Shortly after, a lull, of roughly the same duration as the stretch.
This one wasn't that intended. Not like I had the typical space I had in the preceding 5 days, but still, could've been done. Simply to keep the streak, a minimum standard note.
One roadblock #
Got to figure out how to do this from my phone too, in case I'm unable to get to this device in time - before midnight. Like I'm Cinderella.
Today #
Mostly chores.
Learning #
Pressure and some anxiety releasing brings intense focus.
Anxiety release/masking can be achieved in broadly 2 ways.
The cheap way #
A beer, probably a toke - something that instantly makes the mind less active, and less inhibited maybe.
The better way #
Conscious focus. Deep breath helps. Practice of meditation helps become better at catching such moments and remember to consciously focus.
It's all about getting into the rhythm.
