Staying packed with work all day, we mostly stay invisible
on our chats. Procrastinating that long due chat with your chat friends because
you need to focus. Already the Internet is quite a distraction but you can’t
also do anything without it. Even if you avoid staying updated on your laptop
or desktop, phones these days are smart to keep you entangled in trending
topics, latest comments, recent album uploads and compliments on your recent
profile pic. While you struggle to wrap your job on time and pack your
presentation with all the required slides, you are reminded of the calls you
need to make to the credit card company, the payments due, appointment with the
doc, weekend plan to be finalized, book your tickets for the next month back to
your home or an occasion to attend, file your leaves for it too.
Never do we give our mind any rest. And while we keep our
brains on the roll, we are after it to store as much as possible. Stuffing and
packing it with overloaded information and tasks for the day. Suddenly, when you go to ask a colleague
something, you go BLANK! As if all data erased, no traces found, you find
yourself in a vacuum. I call this stage when you go Brain-dazzled!
Putting too much and trying to pull off more than you can
handle, without respecting yourself and your limits leaves you bonkers! And
your brain gives you back, a white-blank-blow, rubbing it in your face.
Remind yourself, how much is too much and put your foot
down. If you’ve been facing such a situation when your mind is giving up, take
a break and stop.
