Ringo is quite a responsible person, he always tries to finish his work in the time he sets, but sometimes he feels deficient or disinterested in what he is doing and so he unconsciously occupies himself with other things and then it is somewhat difficult for him to concentrate, he goes to bed very late, goes to bed late and gets up early (or sometimes not), you can imagine the dark circles under his eyes.
-Dude, are you okay? You look terrible, like you can't sleep - Jhon told me while we were walking to work.
-I know, I feel exhausted, I don't sleep much," I answered him without any encouragement.
-What's the reason you're like that? -he asked-
-Something is going on in my head and I don't know what it is or maybe I do but I tend to ignore it, I don't really know what's going on with me (even if I lie, I know what's going on, but I try to overcome it in another way, or just stop doing it).
Whatever it is it's not good! -he said in an alert tone- Sleep is one of the most important things my friend, if you don't do something, your organism will sooner or later take its toll....
There is reason in his words, but what annoys Ringo the most about all this is that in some cases he slows me down in things that have nothing to do with his productivity, time goes by very fast and he doesn't see it coming.
He was sitting in his chair in front of the computer, his computer is a bit slow so from time to time he has to wait a few minutes for it to react. -Get out of the machine! - I'm trying to do things as fast as I can, but I can't thanks to your RAM - and I still don't have the money to buy a new computer. A myriad of negative thoughts came to his mind.
-Come on, react!
He put his hands on his head, trying to pull out his hair, he couldn't just sit there waiting for that machine that although it works miracles with so many tasks he puts on it, it leaves him waiting for more than 15 minutes.
Mmmmm, - what a bummer - bored and unstable of not being able to move forward, he picked up the phone, he always does when this waste of time happens to him, he noticed something he hadn't noticed after a few days, I hadn't even noticed the moment when I turn on the phone and open the facebook app! to see what things can make him waste more time (he is aware of that), he steals my attention this thing, all those videos he doesn't care about, they make him mentally tired but nevertheless he sees it - do I have nothing more important to see? - He wondered in shock, grumpy thought.
-My God, it's been more than 2 hours already - he said as he reacted and looked at the clock at the bottom of the computer screen, (He had already loaded the task he was waiting for).
-Damn! - How late it is, I can't believe it, past 12:00 in the morning.
What am I doing? He wondered - and suddenly a voice came into his head.
-Plan - You have been in this situation many times before, you have thought about it, and you have reflected on it, what are you waiting for? Let those negative thoughts die, remember that it's your own mind that makes everything gain that illusion of despair, reorganize your ideas, remember something, time is not running out, it's never too late to start, what is it that keeps you from growing? What so insignificant thing is that? Fight against what you know that hurts you and is inside you!...
-Reflect - thinking about it better, wouldn't you think it would be better if for today, for this early morning, I could stop what I am doing, better identify the mistake I am making, and tomorrow morning, I would wake up with a fresher head and continue with my work...? I would sleep the hours that correspond to the body and mind, and I would do better?
So it happened, thanks to that voice in his head he went straight to bed, but what voice was that? Who was it? Morpheus, doing his job as God of sleep? But... I don't think Morpheus would give that advice. The little angel who is sometimes accompanied by a little devil and tells you what is good and bad, like in the cartoons? Mmm, I don't know... it sounds fantastic, but I wish I could see them," he said, laughing.
The next day, he got out of bed and went to brush his teeth and looked in the mirror -and he said to himself- Today is going to be a great day, with all the patience in the world he finished what he left unfinished in the morning, he finished what he had to do at home and went to work in the afternoon.
Jhon when he saw him said - You look radiant my friend, you have a new face Ringo!
The idea is to always stay that way! - I replied - Attitude Jhon!
