I have the strange ability to shut things out.

I find I have to give myself a day when I just shut myself off and do nothing but read.

I try to manage my time to conserve energy.

I'm always doing something. I never shut my brain off. I always have something going on.

I try to keep my head on straight and take nothing for granted.

I tend to latch on to things and not let go.

The world intrudes in my brain daily. Since my brain is dripping with all kinds of stuff that's out there in the world, that I can't seem to be able to shut out, it has to end up being in my work as well.

For me, when I'm not working, the day goes by so fast. I never have enough time - getting a manicure, getting a pedicure, getting my workout in, making sure that I ate healthy. Those things can become treacherous to the mind.

I switch on and off very easily; I'm inherently lucky in that sense. I sleep well.
