As I explained last week, I really need to reduce some of my responsibilities. One of my issues is the amount of things that I do out of guilt.

Last week, I opened my first Christmas card and I was like, “shit. I have to do cards, too.” If someone walks by you in the street and says hi, you’ll respond and say hi, too, right? Not sending cards suddenly felt like I was snubbing some very dear friends and family, so I rushed out and created a card. Tomorrow night, I’ll have to send them out. I really need to stop doing things because of guilt.

Hours of work, because of a pang of guilt. I need intervention.

Did you send out Christmas cards this year?
