I’m closing in on three weeks of being off of work. It’s been glorious but also the same holds true for me now as it did in high school--when I am busier, I am more productive. Whenever I was in season for any one of my sports, I always did better in school. The constraints were actually good for me. They forced me to get done what I needed to get done because I knew that I wouldn’t have a chance to do it later because of practice or a game.
