    This is my legit new life goal.

    I can’t even sit on the couch without feeling guilty about how could I best utilize this time. What is the highest value thing I can watch? No mediocre watching for me…

    I want to slow down and actually experience the life that is rushing past me. It’s going to take a lot of life changes and I have to complete some obligations first. But life is too short to be speed-running the whole damn thing like this.

      oh, dude, it’s fucked how hard it is to just sit down and do nothing. like even to just sit there and have a few sips of coffee in the couch in the morning looking out at dawn progress, all I can think is “I should clock in and get to work so I can clock out earlier”

      I’ve really been trying to work on it this year, but there’s just so much I want to do. and then I have little motivation to actually do it after a long annoying day at work having had to make too many decisions and deal with too much bs that somebody else should have handled.
