There is nothing sweeter in life than puttering around (some may call wasting time). I used to feel guilty as you seem to but it's something almost everyone does. You WILL go insane if you try to be a driven, high output person - that's something too many aspire to be. Sometimes it's just not in your character. I am not saying you should sleep all day but you need to find the right balance for you and not feel guilty about it.

Sometimes I stop reading a book that I can't get into, I never used to, I used to agonizingly push to the finish, but now I just set it down and start a new one! Not sure what I am trying to say?? Maybe you need to set down writing and try a new hobby for a while... or just a new type of writing... The solution to all my problems and the the cause of all my problems has been kiting, its all I want to do!!! good luck with the insane thing, don't worry it gets better! cd I totally hear you, if I could only get motivated at work I would work harder…

And if you buy a house, that will be a lot of money. So who knows, maybe it will work. Or maybe you'll just spend lots of time mowing the lawn. Maybe putting money on it will be motivation.
