One of my strengths is that I can focus on something, even something difficult, and drive until I get it done.
This same characteristic is also a weakness. If I focus on something, I lose focus on everything else. I can float along sharing attention across a lot of things, but if something really concerns me (like my work at times in my past, or my M during the past few months) then I lock in on that and lose focus (or even interest) in everything else. When I was focused on my work, I ignored my M (part of what got me here...). Now when I have been focused on my M (past 6 months), I lost focus on my work.
Balance is hard.
I think that is part of why GAL, etc helps me detach. If I focus on myself, then I just can't focus as much on my W.
btw, I am also at work and not working
