Learning to Do Nothing
So I almost made it through my first week of retirement feeling good about everything but a couple of days ago some unease reared its head. I thought I might be missing social interactions at work so I went to see my friend Linda. Linda showed me her system for getting things done – basically a notebook and a way to separate out long term and daily tasks. That was good but didn’t really solve my problem. Upon closer self-examination, I think my problem is that I haven’t learned to relax and be OK with nothing going on! This is another thing to practice getting good at!
I haven’t experienced that problem yet. I may have a higher tolerance for sloth.
