Isn’t it amazing how much work you can get done when you don’t have a job?

I’m unemployed so I have a billion tasks in no specific order, and no boss to push me to do it:
- order stuff for a non-profit
- write some documents for that same non-profit, they are not organized at all
- clean my desktop
- study
- play the drums
- read non-tech books
- do some bodyweight
- NOT play Steam while drinking beer for 4 hours
I have 4 hours left, it should be easy but being unemployed for 6 months and constantly rejected is making me feel like shit. I’ll see what I can do though.

I’m sorry you’re out of a job. If i may offer some unsolicited advice, maybe start by doing some kind of self care exercise. Like thinking about the things you appreciate about yourself or idk, maybe just allowing yourself to take your time with your chores.
Unemployment will fuck up your mental health. And yeah, rejection is rough but don’t think any less of yourself due to it.
Not currently having a role in the mindless production of a heartless society does not reflect on your value as a person, a friend, or even a worker.
Stay strong. <3

That’s some great unsolicited advice and I appreciate that. I’ll keep that in mind and add it to my routine. Thanks!

I did everything and more thanks to you! I’ll see if there is a community for procrastinators to post their todo lists…
