I read somewhere that even the most highly effective people can only remember 9 things at one time.
Any more than that, and something's got to give.
I also read somewhere that the definition of madness is repeating the same actions and expecting a different result.
I've been thinking about these two things a lot lately.
My brain is full.
It's full to bursting with things I have to remember. Things I have to take into account. Things I have to do.
The things I have to do require me to take things into account.
There are multiple dependencies, multiple uncertainties.
I find myself wondering at which point it beccomes ok to say "actually, this is too much".
Change is coming, but at present there is limbo.
I suppose I should welcome it as the calm before the storm, but I don't. I've never been very good at being patient, at waiting to see what happens.
I wonder if I'm being over-dramatic - if it's just lack of sleep and a bad spell at work.
I really don't know.
