4th July - Studying my Exhaustion
Today has been one of the most exhausting days i have had in a while.
If i take a look at what i did today in terms of work:
- Call with Harsh: 30 mins
- Call with Shriya: 15 mins
- Bliss club Interview: 1 hour
- Call with NGO: 30 mins
- Sleep: 2 hours
- Freak out about salary: 40 mins
- Warehousing call: 30 mins
For context: I slept for 8 hours (did not feel like enough at all) and spent a lot of my time worrying about the many things on my plate that i was not paying attention to, having general anxiety about job search, giving my attention to a lot of other calls and jumping between multiple activities.
After 7, till about 10, I was just so exhausted i could not do anything. If i try to understand how my time went by, it neither was productive, nor rejuvenating. My brain was not in a space to work, but i was unable to redirect my effort towards more recharging type of activities.
I do remember that i spent a lot of time on WhatsApp, though
Once i hit such a stage, i need to figure out what i can do to get out of it faster. One thing i think i should definitely do is switch off, and not engage with things that are not immediate/ important.
I also need to either nap, or drink water or eat or bathe or do something that gives my body energy and mind a break.
