stress buster

straight from the heart
lazy people like me work best under stress. when the deadline is near the tension builds up and then the grey cells start working. i have been feeling mentally tried lately. i don't feel like doing anything, unless it is unavoidable. maybe i need a break- but that may not work. i feel the internal motivation has slowed down to a halt. only the external push is helping. the classes are getting routine; students hardly push you. the challenge is necessary to do that extra bit. somehow the autonomy, instead of helping us- teachers and students- has made us overburdened and as a result it shows in the way we are allowing the flow to wash us ashore.

sir, I can relate with what you are saying. The internal motivation died down within me a few days back, but then because of the deadline (which is Tmrw) somehow my mind just refuses to stop working.
We keep talking about reunions, they never seeem to materialise! just like 3rd JP class trip!!
