once the nice, clear-cut goal is done, what replaces it instead is the massive avalanche of all the other things i've been putting off. everything has suddenly become the top priority, all at the same time. afterall, i've been putting them off, and now it's finally a good time to deal with them, right? there are simply no more excuses. but which one? how is it possible that there are so many things to do now, all of utmost urgency?
the point is, i shouldn't have procrastinated in the first place. especially now i know for a fact that things almost always go bad after these "achievements". there's probably a 24-hour window, at best 48 hours, and that's that. nothing to see here, let's move on.
so, what to do with myself after these "things".
- don't be paralyzed. first, do the things i had previously promised others to do. they have probably been waiting for a heck of a long time already.
- secondly, remember to be grateful to all those people who supported me in this thing, whatever it is.
- thirdly, self-development takes a backseat here. make sure my livelihood is still in place, or at least, sort it out asap. no money, no talk.
- and yes, remember not to procrastinate in the first place. things that need to be done have to be done.
