Am I Just Bored All the Time?
I have noticed something unusual about myself since I retired. Retirement gives me the option of doing something for a period of time, then I can switch to something else, then back again. The net result is that I accomplish things but not necessarily at one sitting. Is this because I get bored easily? I don't feel bored, in fact all of my time is used up during the day - I just get to do what I want to do at the moment. Is that so hard to grasp?
When I was at work, I would often have a hard time concentrating on what I was doing. I attributed this to the stress that I was under and the fact that I had deadlines to meet. So even if I was tired of what I was doing, I couldn't just up and stop what I was doing and move on to something else. So there are a number of things that I am doing, seemingly in parallel, but in actuality a little of this a little of that, then I come back to a little of this. Strange, but I am not going out of my mind - I think.
