Chilling Out – My First Blaugust 2024 Post

Chilling out is important. After a full week of work, it’s good to relax. For me, it’s hard to do. In the back of my mind, I think I am just being lazy and I think there is something that needs to be done. I also have this anxiety that someone is going to call and beg for my help.

As I have said I have to work at setting boundaries and saying no. It is important to reclaim my time for myself instead of giving myself away. Sure, it’s nice to be needed but I don’t want to be needed so much at this stage in my life.

So as I write this, I am having some fun and enjoying the time to do stuff I want to do. Perhaps I should matter more to me.

This post is a part of the Blaugust 2024 blogging festival.

Rambling About Chilling Out

We all get wound up about things in life and that leads to its own problems. People really need to learn how to chill out. For me, learning to relax is not easy. I feel like I have to be doing something, thinking about something and that leads to me sometimes just crashing like a computer or worse. My brain seems to be running all the time, and you know that is not a very good thing especially at night. There are people who say they will sleep when they are dead, but you know I need to sleep so I won’t die. Maybe our high-stress world would be well served by just not sweating the small stuff. Not everyone can relax even if they tried because they need to have control over every situation in their lives. So everyone let’s learn to chill out.
