Stage 1 Day 21 (28)
Another day when I had to forgo exercises for the sake of work. Given the weather is terrible it's not a great loss, but normally I'd go for that walk no matter what. Now though I decided against it. And perhaps it's a good thing - my attempts at switching my focus are clearly working and I'd rather stay dry at home than risk getting sick.
Given I still have vacation time for the entire September I'm averaging (counting only days when I actually get to work) 4 hours of work without any breaks. So counting all the toilet and food and drink breaks as well as work conversations I'd estimate I'm doing solid 6 hours of daily work. That's not bad, once the vacation stops I will try to average 6 hours or possibly even 8 hours. We'll see about that exactly, a lot will depend whether I'll be working from home or from office.
To be honest I don't know why LTU pushes me into my work so much. During the past months with LTU5 I've done relatively little, much less than I'm doing now even though my situation work-wise didn't change much. It's weird. I've very curious if this will continue or maybe I'll lose my mojo and I'll be doing the required minimum again. I think what it boils down to is me learning how to work from home and how to motivate myself to work. Trying to prove something to oneself is one helluva motivation.

For not by numbers of men, nor by measure of body, but by valor of soul is war to be decided.
