The missing off switch
People who know me closely have seen the stark difference that has come in the last 12-18 months of my life. When I evolved from being a chronic procrastinator to slowly changing my life to become the most productive I’ve ever been.
But…
This is where a new problem starts, my off switch is missing. In the last few months, my mind has become so addicted to fast-paced work and the adrenaline rush that it brings. Now I’m struggling to take a break. I’m struggling to find the right balance between work and life.
Easily working 100+ hours per week, hustling 7 days a week, and getting shit done. Friends who were used to under 60 second response times on WhatsApp are now having to wait hours and sometimes even a day to get a response. So they are rightly concerned, and I’m starting to hear a lot more of wtf are you upto? Is everything alright?
But…
I’m currently addicted to this sleep-deprived, performance induced hyperactive state of mind. I’ve lost my ‘off’ switch.
If anyone can find it, they will be rewarded with a $10 Amazon Gift Card.
But…
I’m still conflicted, do I want to even find the switch?
