I hope smallsteps is feeling a bit better today.

We all have time, if it is not the right time for something it can be used, as you said, in preparation for when it is somethings time.  

For me i like to do serious stuff very early in the morning when i wake up. My brain is so fast. I read my academic books and it sinks in fast. 
This doesnt mean i shouldn't read in the afternoon even if the conditions are suboptimal. I feel working at suboptimal levels require some form of determination . I was watching a video and Jeff Bezos said he actually schedules his time. He does serious work by 10:00 am time . I feel people should schedule their time and put the most important things when the time is most optimal. Very good post @tarazkp

Estos tiempos tan cambiantes obligan a vernos más a nosotros mismos y cómo somos en situaciones demandantes o que están cargadas de estrés, las horas sin dormir, sobre todo cuando hay preocupación,  requieren su tiempo también para calmarse y seguir haciendo lo que nos gusta.  Todo estará bien.

>I am too tired to do this, I have no time, the time isn't right, I am not in the mood and a million other things get in our way daily, slow our progress toward where we want to be and generally, stop us from investigating our own processes along the path. 

This applies only to those people who do not know "WHY?" they should do something.

She's so cute. Give her a hug from uncle G-dog.

With the battle cries resounding here most of the time, I can dedicate between two and five hours a day to "my own work". But I believe in short working periods. That can be productive as well. Especially if the quality is the determining factor, rather than the quantity of work. Also, I do consider giving my attention elsewhere important. It's training for me, still, despite the fact that it is also real.

Me quedo con la última frase para siempre "la falta de preparación lo deja todo a la suerte" excelente. Que bueno leer publicaciones como estas, con las que me siento tan identificada, humana e imperfecta. Gracias 

I think it's the angle she's got her head on while sleeping but I suddenly realised in the first photo how big she's getting :) (she still tiny though)

You're definitely not alone in having optimal and suboptimal times to work in.  My most subotimal time is early morning and definitely before the first coffee (don't even ask me anything or make me think then, it won't end well for anyone).  I work best at ridiculous hours of night x_x

When it comes to my project I don't have time for this, but will happily apply it to everything else I don't want to do XD

I have three kids... an older son, who is sitting home after his college closed for the year... and a 1st and 2nd grader, for whom I am now functioning as a teacher.

However, for the last 8 years, I've mostly functioned as a stay-at-home dad.  My oldest youngest child is mildly Autistic and had significant infant acid reflux.  I attempted to work from home at first, but I ended up spending 8 to 9 hours a day simply getting my acid-refluxy baby her food.

I broke down in tears of confusion, happiness, and relief when the local school system admitted my Autistic daughter at age 3 for full day school in a one-on-one session.  And now she's back home... and I'm her teacher... and slightly disappointed at the school system for the apparently lack of basic knowledge in the curriculum... strange how that changed.  I've come to realize that individual teachers are the important component, while the institution itself is broken beyond repair. 

My youngest youngest child never slept... from birth until age 3, she woke every 2 hours.  And then between 3 and 5 the nights got a little longer.  But that was mostly due to finding the sweet spot of low room temperature, Marpac noise machine, and near complete darkness... God forbid someone three houses down the street sneezed in the night or the full moon was just barely lighting the floor or the room temperature rose above 64 degrees F!

In any case... I've been there... I know how it feels to be awakened in the middle of the night by a young child who I thought was/or should have been sleeping peacefully "by now" ...

After spending hundreds of hours reading about sleeping habits of toddlers, it's actually quite common to have a toddler regress in the number of contiguous sleeping time.  I'd give advice, but that's never helpful...

--End odd stream of thoughts.

We are just a creature of habit.  Some more than others.  

The ones that are moreso, may be challenged greatly with this upheaval.  Others will bounce around and maybe find out new things with the newfound freedom.

The good news is that we have the opportunity (necessity?) to build new patterns, better habits, and redefine something that may have needed a change before the lockdown.

Never waste a good crisis!
