stop working

oneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee more week and im done. Wotzoors!

someday I plan to own a restaurant and that way I never will have to work for anyone again.

I will organise so that by 45, I will not be obliged to work. I guess I will work all my life long, but how good must it be to now that you don’t need to!

I’m taking this off my list. I think the goal mutated from my original intention just to spend less evening time at work into something much more complex. I think it uncovered things that need attention, but in its current format at the present time it no longer expresses anything I want to achieve.

One of the aspects of not stopping work is that I grew up with the idea that one should not stop working if a job is almost completed. The right thing to do is to finish the job, and then stop. It is just one of those admirable customs I inherited.

Now, however, I see that it cannot be applicable to every job, and every occasion when I need to stop working. I would not, for example, be able to finish shovelling a truckload of sand before needing to stop to eat and sleep.

I’ve recently used the Scheduler on Windows Vista to give me a half-hourly reminder to take a break. I just stop and take three breaths. It seems to be a practicable way to stop working.

I think I’ve been barking up the wrong tree. Spending overmuch time at work is merely a symptom, not a primary event. The negative effects of working too much is not secondary, but tertiary effects.

I’m still guessing at what the primary cause is, but it’s got something to do with relaxation (i.e. not working.) Clear as mud.

I’ve only got about 70 megabyte of Internet traffic left of my montly quota at work. I am waiting to see what I’m going to do.

It’s a vicious circle, a grinding mill.

I’ve decided not to work tomorrow. I’ll go home and come back on Monday. Beside the trouble with the hydrogen supply, I realized that I considered working for the wrong reasons: I feel guilty and think I should and hope it will make a difference. I’ve tried it before and it doesn’t work.

The right reasons would have been if had a lot off stuff I could finish, if I was on a roll, if taking a day of would have interrupted something.
