On tough days, your emotions can pull you straight into "paralysis of analysis". You feel stuck. You say, "Nothing is working." or "My phone is not ringing…" The truth is 'nothing is working' because you are not working. Not really. If you're finding you're spending more time on Netflix or anywhere instead of at work, you may have fallen victim to it, BUT YOU DON'T HAVE TO STAY THERE.
