Burnout is still a luxury, but...

Time Hop showed me that one year ago I wrote about how burnout is a luxury, for me. That I still needed to keep working, despite being exhausted.

Looks like things didn’t change one year on, except that this time I tried to rest even while I worked. The paradoxical nature of that statement still baffles me. It’s like asking how do you run in stillness?

I didn’t.

I simply continued working as needed, but tried to self-care from the pockets of time I had to scrape for. Then eventually I just gave up on social media altogether to get substantially more time.

All I did was having self-care on drip.

Bit by bit, drop by drop.

Eventually punching through the stone.

Hopefully.
