I try to tell my brain that, but it doesnt understand. I have only two speeds apparently. 0 or 100. And my brain loves sitting at 0 until it has no choice but to go to 100 until whatever it is is done.
That is called racing to sleep iirc and is a valid cpu scheduling technique. It works on the assumption that doing nothing (sleeping is the term there) is much more energy efficient than doing anything even if slowly, so much so that you make up the energy spent to boost to top speed.
I can be hella efficient when i need to, and definitely get things done more quickly than i would if i weren’t on such a tight deadline, and when i was in high school or whatever it worked out okay, but as ive gotten older the stress and anxiety has started to impact me more, and now its to the point where even in the downtime i cant actually relax and end up stressing about what i need to do, but cant bring myself to start it.
