Being ill...

So being ill isn't great but it does give you time to think. Over the past week or so, iv'e been cooped up in bed with an illness which i am now recovering from due to a large dose of antibiotics every 6 hours, (only slightly annoying for someone who likes to sleep longer than 6 hours at a time!) Therefore i've had alot of time to think. To ponder over how actually paranoid i became in my last relationship, to realise that i cannot wait for next year, to know that i want to take a more relaxed and happy perspective on life, to prevent my former self to come back.
Yet i have a first obstacle: Lots and lots of work and a little amount of time.
Will i get my motivation back after this illness to get this work done on time to a high degree and not get stressed. Its a battle i as others have fought many times before in life. And usually, i suceed. In fact, i've onli partially failed once, and that wasnt bad.
I just need to incorporate "happy life" with motivation and lots and lots of work. It could be fun?!
