Ok, so now I’ve slowed down, in terms of work, play and such else. It means no more burning the midnight oil. In my case, I was burning the 2 sometimes 3′o’ clock-in-the-morning- oil, and then ending up with too little sleep. And although I was getting by on as little as 4 or 5 hours each night, it just wasn’t enough. Eventually sleep caught up with me, usually at the wrong time of the day. However since stepping back, discipline has entered my life again. This morning, I woke up at 5am after a decent night’s sleep. This meant I had an extra hour in the morning to do something constructive before starting the day. (Ami now wakes up 6am as opposed to her old time of 7am, so I had to shift my time). Today it wasn’t about how much ironing I could in an hour, or how much cleaning I could do, or how much cooking I could do, it was about how much writing I could do. I finally did my morning pages. Yippee!
