"I just wanna lie in my bed, and watch 'Friends' all day!"
--'22 Jump Street'
… CONTRARY to what MANY IGNORAMUSES THINK,
there IS a "YYYUUUUUUUJJJ!"(--Comedian Jimmy Fallon's MOCKING-of Donald Trump's voice/personality) difference between
"being TIRED"
&
"being SLEEPY".
(… I USED-to--PRE-accident--PRIDE-myself on my SPECTACULAR-endurance & -stamina. **
NOW, for SOME-reason, I tire way-TOO QUICKLY for MY-liking.)
But, what I UNDERSTAND/KNOW is that "TIRING" merely involves the "FATIGUING-of MUSCLES". It has NOTHING/ZERO/ZILCH/'NADA' to do with "SLEEP-deprivation"! So, when I--HESITATE-to--declare that "I'm TIRED", SPARE me the 'FAUX'-/SARCASTIC-sympathy of YOUR LATE-/SLEEPLESS-nights!
(… Ya see, I "function" quite-WELL with MY LATE-nights & EARLY-mornings!)
…
A "DREAM" becomes a "GOAL", when
ACTION is TAKEN toward ACHIEVING it.
… "A 'GOAL' is a DREAM with a deadline … PLUS 'ACTION-steps'."
(--Napoleon Hill)
… So, I KINDA DIS-agree … to an EXTENT.
Granted, a TIME-requirement DOES "impose FURTHER-RESTRICTIONS" on said "GOAL". But, I DIS-agree that 'tis a "REQUIREMENT".
… The word "DEADLINE" just seems TOO "matter-of-FACT"/"cut-&-DRY"/"ALL-or-NOTHING" for MY-liking.
How 'bout "DESIRE" … or "GUIDE-line"?
(… 'Cuz there'll STILL-be great-CELEBRATION upon the COMPLETION of said-task. Just, IDEALLY, it'd be NICE if it were "DEFEATED" with-IN the REQUESTED-"parameters".)
… Today I reviewed a FEW of my "GOALS" with my "Neuro-psychotherapist":
SHORT-Term
-- AUDIT a class AT my LOCAL "grad-school" to RE-establish myself as a "GRADUATE-student".
(… Only THIS time, switch-to a "CONCENTRATION", select ONLY courses I'm INTERESTED-in & be more-SOCIAL.
-- (AGAIN:) Get-/Go- OUT more!
(… I'd NEED GOOD-company!)
-- Find a charter-/NON-profit-/volunteer-organization in-which I can/may "CONCENTRATE" all my SPARE-time.
(… BESIDES my NON-paying "MARTIAL ARTS"-teaching?! BESIDES my NON-paying MATH-tutoring?!
MY PERSISTENT-/CONSTANT-motto THROUGHOUT MY recovery/rehabilitation:
"Hey, IF it were EASY, then EVERYONE would do it."
((… No, I do NOT wish MY (UN-enviable) "situation" upon my WORST-enemy.
Nonetheless, I "trudge-ON", … 'cuz I KNOW I'm "BETTER than this. … Also, "the WORLD"/SOCIETY BENEFITS from MY MANY "contributions".))
… UNDERSTANDABLY, just-about ALL tasks take me a tad-longER to COMPLETE than "the average bear".
It isn't
that I "caN'T SEE the solution".
It's just that--from time-to-time--I don't understand the
problem clearly-ENOUGH.
(… Thus, I--UN-ashamedly--"PEPPER" the "problemEE"
with RELATED-questions.)
… 'Tis MUCH-easIER to resolve a problem when you know
exactly what it is.
(… NOT to BRAG, … but I WILL … IN-directly:)
"If I had 60 minutes to SOLVE a PROBLEM, I'd spend 55
minutes DEFINING (SPECIFYING) it, & FIVE minutes
SOLVING it."
(--Albert Einstein)
…
…
ALAS! I HAFTA get-OUTTA this/MY wheelchair!
"(SIGH) Nobody decides WHEN."
(--'Gross Pointe Blank')
"(SIGH) Nobody decides WHEN."
(--'Gross Pointe Blank')
KEY
** = During my senior-year of high school--my BEST
WRESTLING-season, I "was PINNED"/"gave-up"
(REGRETTABLY) JUST THREE times in 34 matches!
(… THAT's … ~8.82%.)
PARTING-Thoughts:
"If ANYONE had a 'NOT-so-good' TODAY, do your BEST
to 'ROCK that shit' TOMORROW.
Life is TOO SHORT for TWO days of 'BULLSHIT' in a
row."
(--Jay Long)
