Inertia and special interests

Deleted User

I wondered if anyone experiences inertia but even with things which are supposed "intense interests"? I really struggle when I have no routine and am in one of those periods at the moment. I had a really good flow state abut a week ago and it lasted for 2 days. Apart from that it's like all life has escaped me and I cant get going.

    I've taken to writing things down in the morning. I never go back and check it though. It's kind of like...I have got time now to be engaging in hobbies and want to but have no motivation even though it's something I enjoy. I've tried just throwing myself into it which sometimes works. But it's like all action has ceased at the moment.

    I think it's a way to try and get myself motivated at the start of the day. I also have a more general list of things which need attending to like errands, appointments, house stuff. Sometimes there isn't much or I don't know where to start or I think I can put things off. If I then have free time,  often I don't know how to spend it wisely.

    Its interesting that you don't check what you have written, I don't check that I have done the jobs I set myself I just have the comfort blanket of knowing that if I suddenly start to feel that I don't know what to do or get anxious that I should be productive then I have the list to go back to.
