I noticed there is a class of favors that require a lot of Follow up. That to help a person, doing them a favor, requires many follow-up sessions and reminders. This adds up and infact drains people of attention.
So I’m feeling burned out and I noticed I’ve not been writing as much. Writing is my meditation and consolidating my thoughts, Removing items that i have decided (wrongly or correctly) that I cannot juggle right now.
I saw a friend ask for Condo tenancy for her sibling. She got a lot of replies – and she could only manage one. Eventually, she could not return or feedback everyone who posted – even me. Then I realized – Why did she have to post for her sibling, why can’t her sibling POST and she just share the post – so all the Comments can go to the sibling’s post.
We ask so much attention from others. We don’t know how much we take and how much is left. We have so many distractions and this makes me wonder, are we mismanaging our attention so badly? Why are we not able to apply – prioritization? Why are we not able to kindly defer or exchange priorities?
