I am at my wits end. I am completely lacking focus and concentration at work. I work part time (4 days pw) and although I work in the same field as I did when I was full time, I do a different, much less time-pressured role. I work very fixed hours, 8:30-4:30, with nothing outside those hours (apartn from checking my emails and responding to the odd quick question here and there). I used to work much longer days before I changed role. I am really, really struggling to focus at work. I feel guilty and beat myself up about it. I feel like I don't achieve enough each day ? I have plenty on my list of things to do, but I just amble through it, nothing is super urgent, and there are projects I could really take 'by the throat' and get on with but I just don't do it. I procrastinate and find myself checking personal email and facebook many times a day. If I think of something personal I need to do (e.g. pay a bill, order a birthday present online, buy a new pair of shoes, email a friend) I do it instantly. I can't stop myself! My bosses think I am doing an amazing job and the pay is excellent. I think I am probably a bit bored...but the pay, adult company, stimulation and working hours are just too good to pass up. I just feel a mess because I am constantly flitting between tasks and I don't seem to have the discipline to just CHANGE. I am an incredibly organised person outside work ? our home and life is organised to a tee. This is why it is all so bewildering! How can I get it together?!!
