Check In Day 16
Forget a month of Sundays: if January was a month of Mondays, then February has felt like a month of Tuesdays. We know what's happened, we have an idea of what's still to come, but it still feels like everything has to get done by climbing uphill both ways.
With that minor bit of depression out of the way, how is everything else?
Discussion time:
I'll tell you what, there are few things more frustrating that getting in the writing-stress cycle:
Writing relieves stress-->When I'm too stressed, I can't write-->When I can't write, I get stressed-->Repeat 5ever.
But when I manage to break this cycle--even with just a sentence written during 3 minutes of "hiding in the bathroom" time--I do always feel better for having written.
So, the main question is: How do we remind ourselves that writing helps our brain? How do y'all get to that point, if you do?
