Gotta say. I think if it feels like work it might be worth taking a break.I'm past Part 1, and the Interludes. I'm 300 pages in! I feel like I've done so much work.![]()
I will say there's a difference between "work" and "chore." Especially for diving into a 1200+ page book after a years-long physical-reading slump. "Work" feels productive, and "chore" feels draining. And there were a couple of days where I had to take a break, because my brain just felt drained and tired after a couple of sittings.Gotta say. I think if it feels like work it might be worth taking a break.
Fair enough. These days when I see "Work" and "read" together I think of spending 30 minutes reading the same paragraph cause everything glazed over and you lost your place in the technical document you've been reading. lolI will say there's a difference between "work" and "chore.
Yeah, no worries. I've been giving myself grace, because I'm still in recovery from the reading slump. And the grace includes not making myself absorb the incredibly dense and technical scenes when they come up. I'll just let my eyes float over the words, and I'll absorb what I absorb.Fair enough.

Always happy to check in on folks.
