I sometimes find this time of the year tough.

More difficult to keep up with important habits, more difficult to keep up with my studies, and more difficult to keep up with my writing.

It’s not that I don’t have energy. I have plenty. I find it difficult to focus my energy towards important work.

So where does my energy go?

My mind wants to focus my thoughts towards doing and observing things. As if it was pulling my head out of my books and into the world. As if my mind was saying, “what good is that knowledge if you don’t use it.”

Fair point, brain. Fair point.
