I know I'm about as bright as a 15 watt bulb when it comes to this, but if you could be patient with me and tell me -- AGAIN -- how this works, I'd appreciate it.
Today, I'm getting awfully close to nothing done. (Besides forwarding more than 250 spams to my ISP. Which did take something close to forever.) I can't shower, because the water's off for repairs somewhere in this complex, so I haven't left the house. (Today, I *need* a shower to go outside, unless I choose to shave my head...) Obviously, can't do laundry, nor clean the bathrooms. But there are other things I could be doing, things I really want to get done, things I'm trying to drag my @$$ off this chair to get done.
But I haven't done any of them. Every time I think about actually doing them, I start to fold inward. And some of them are things I am pretty sure I'd enjoy if I did get started on them. It's not even "oh, it's a chore, no wonder you don't want to do it..."
As a result of my resistance to Doing Anything At All, I'm not feeling all that great about myself. In fact, I would say I'm feeling pretty negative about myself.
So, someone explain again -- in words of one syllable or less -- that whole thing about my worth not being tied to my achievements? My value not being measured by what I do?
Thanks!

Guess that's a sign I do think I'm worth someone's time to answer me, as well as a sign I trust people here to care enough about me to repeat the lesson for a slow learner. ;-)
