Not enough to Too Much

Some days I worry I am not doing enough

I try to increase my efficiency and do more stuff

If I spend my time in frivolous pursuits, guilt gnaws at me

Time must not be wasted, it is a precious commodity..

*

Then there are days when my workload I want to decrease

I want to take a break and rest for as long as I please

Some responsibilities that I had added to my plate

I want to relinquish in my exhausted state

*

I want to be productive, and never seem to know

Where to draw the line, therefore I go

From one extreme to the other, never satisfied

With what I am doing, I am unable to decide

Which one of the two I should prioritize-

Constant hustling or intermittent rest- it would be wise

To choose rest at this late hour anyway

And leave the conundrum for another day
