 Well, you know sometimes it's just hard to end the day because Over the course of the day, I'm starting to build up work starting to get things done and then now it's getting on to the late evening and It's time to go to sleep and start working again tomorrow Once again a very obvious point, but this is what this is what's hitting me now is We really are forced into this Daily rhythm we have to find a way to work with the daily rhythm. I mean in this repeating pattern we Turn ourselves on get everything rolling accomplish something and then Just as we're getting going it's time to wind things down into the night have a Good night sleep and Then in the morning from that place of complete sleep Start things up again Take the next leg of the journey and then get a rest once again So it seems like if we're doing heavy physical labor. It's just automatic that By the end of the day, you know, we'll be just so ready to rest and it'll be welcome good Good honest physical labor Just makes things Ready to go for sleep but then When it comes to This kind of mental labor Designing things Working on ideas concepts and especially sitting down at a desk and working at a computer It doesn't really lend itself automatically to Being done in the evening This work at a computer doesn't give that kind of satisfaction of Physical exhaustion instead. It's this weird kind of mental fatigue The body is still awake it hasn't had full exercise But the mind sort of frazzled keyed up Nervous Stimulated by looking at the computer screen tired eyes and This is the fatigue of the 21st century worker Working in this this high-tech mode There is no natural Endpoint for the day's work and the world of Computers and the internet is this this 24-hour flashing lights in our face and It just seems to Be outside all time That flashing computer screen just continues to Be ready for more work on and on and on this is how I've been working most of my life most of my life doing work through computers and I guess it's become normal for me, but Sometimes it really stands out how much this is not a normal and automatic default state this is a very strange Environment to be working in and I feel it today as I'm working this evening Building my website and you know studying all this tech stuff Trying to solve pesky technical problems head scratching and I'm just looking for that Looking for that moment where I can say okay, I have accomplished a piece. I have taken one step and so I Can comfortably end my work day, but I've just been scrambling for Scrambling to solve problems and That are not immediately being solved as I become gradually more fatigued and eventually I simply have to call it a day and Shut things down Started up again in the morning. I Don't really have a solution today. I Don't have a clear insight Into what to do about this simply today, I'm simply noting this thing that In this world of Technical work in the world of computers There's never a natural point to rest It calls us to just keep going forever It's up to us to find a Way to break this work into good rhythms of days so that we achieve a piece of work rest with satisfaction and Then start again on the next piece But for now, I simply have to wrap it up Get myself rested fresh brain in the morning and Start the problem again Post-script I ended up staying awake another hour anyway till I solved that technical problem So finally my mind can rest
