Productive delusion, the effect of a few days, and the lack of solutions
Productive delusion, the effect of a few days, and the lack of solutions
Sep 25, 2024
I had that terrible swim on Sunday morning. It’s now Wednesday night. I’m no longer panicking about the swim. I’m back to thinking that I probably got this. Maybe I’m back to my delusion but I honestly prefer it. Delusion is not real, but perhaps it’s more productive at times because the truth can be crippling.
What’s the correct dosage of delusion? Can you administer it to other people? Can you self-prescribe it?
Anyway. What captured my attention today is the effect of a few days time. I did nothing in the last three days to improve my chances, or add more knowledge about my abilities. I just let the time pass. That’s a good way of putting it. Let the time pass. Allow it to pass. Give it way. Sometimes, I stand in the way with my “Solutions” and “Attempts”.
