Myself, from ten years ago, would agree.
Today, between balancing life goals, family responsibilities, and professional obligations, I need organizational systems to hold it together. In another twenty years I don't think I'll need the same structures again.
For me, an organizational framework is the difference between reactive and pro-active. It need not be elaborate, but I need one to augment my own weakness and ensure that everything that needs doing gets done.
- thelittleone 6y agoSame for me. I found it difficult to balance energy across work, life, wellness. My over focus on work meant I didn't get as much exercise in, which for me is an important outlet and endorphin booster. So would carry more work stress home. Ultimately built a simple notepad system for balancing which has improved my balance a lot.
- texasbigdata 6y agoDiscipline is the only thing that allows my life to not completely fall apart. I believe it’s common in depression, to take an edge case, to lose “routine” either as a preceding or correlated or succeeding event.
- thelittleone 6y agoAgree. On those mornings when I feel lazy, I've learned those are the game changing opportunities to exercise discipline. It's easy to stick to the plan when motivated. I find it empowering (and uplifting) to stick to the plan when unmotivated.
