Tasks haunt me these days. I write them down only to dismiss their reminders.
Each task carries with it the risk that it may be a waste of time. It may only serve to keep me occupied a bit longer.
Time is going by so fast. Riley 10 and Trey 8... Evan (5) and Cora (2) are demanding less and less of my time. What fills that void? I have options, more choice and "freedom" with what I choose to consume or create. Will the former overshadow the latter? And what is it that I default to? What is it that I may allow to dominate my free time.
I think it comes down to this:
Tasks are in the head space.
Does they keep me emotionally disconnected from people? These tasks,... what do I sacrifice in order to complete them? I guess these tasks could be any number of tangible premeditated actions - items that could be "checked off" a list. On the other side of a completed to do list, is anything really different? It may end up costing me far more money, time, or emotion than it's worth.
