I decided I’d write a huge long list and keep it going with everything I wanted to do during my few months “off.” And so I did. I wrote and I wrote and my list grew and I slowly began to cross things off. I gave myself “things to do” each day, and in the end, I feel like I’ve really accomplished a lot!
