My therapist said 'doing the work' requires daily commitment and self-reflection.

So I bought a fancy new planner.

My therapist said I need to validate my own emotions.

So my emotions validated that I needed another nap.

My therapist said I need to 'regulate my nervous system.'

My nervous system said, 'Just one more TikTok.'

My manager told me to 'optimize my passion' for the company.

But honestly, my only passion right now is optimizing my sleep schedule.
