In one of those looonnnng flights I often go on, I checked out the entire entertainment system.
It was quite comprehensive. Games, movies, TV series, learning, music etc
I felt unusually restless and couldn't decide on one thing to do, so I plunged for a round of sudoku. Easy level please.
It was fun to begin with but after a while and a few right numbers, I kind of knew where it was going and got bored. I was about to give up, when I thought, no, giving up is easy. Finish it.
So I decided to carry on. Wow it was so hard. It was less intellectually difficult but more emotionally challenging. I kept wanting to stop and do something else. The other games were calling. Play me play me!
However I decided to finish it. I swear it was really hard. I had to pull all my energy together, in order to focus and concentrate so I could plough through the goddamn puzzle. When I got to the end and placed the last number in the little box, I was exhausted and relieved. It had been stressful to finish the task. Seriously.
It reminded me of Belbins theory. Any of you remember that from your business studies course?
Plant, shaper, completer-finisher. What were the other ones??
Boy did that puzzle ever remind me on what I am NOT!
So as I calm down, I reach once again, for the relaxing stuff, the stuff that I am good at, watching a good ole sitcom.
Time for a detox and a bit of RnR!
Any body else have this difficulty at finishing things? Please tell me I am normal!!
Hi,I thought you might be interested in another blogger who talked about hair loss this week. http://www.chocolatecookiesandcandies.com/
ReplyDeleteShe doesn't have alopecia, but began to lose her hair due to medication and talks about the stigma attached to hair loss for women. I left the link to your blog on her comments page.
