Overload

When I find myself goofing off during the time I set aside to study, I recognize this as brain overload. It's like my mind is saying "No more right now!" I really don't have time for this kind of rebellion. Sometimes I'm able to press on anyway, and sometimes if I provide a little distraction for the capricious side of me, I'm able to get back to the business at hand. This is hard work. There is so much to do. I recognize the need to relax and replenish. But I still have to get the memo written. I still have to read and brief all those cases. I still have to try to understand it all even after all the work is done. It's challenging, but I'm having the time of my life!
