subtle extremist

my eyes have been feeling very heavy this past week.
I feel tired all day.
I'm waking up around 7-8am.
but when I wake up feel like I havnt had any sleep at all.
so this made me think. Why?
and I came to the conclusion:
I'm a subtle extremist.
I find that what ever I do, I do with all my being.
And when I'm given a job/responsibility that is over my ability.
I burn out really quick and crash like a great blue whale falling from the sky.
*splat
but most of this is all mental.
I find that there are different types of extremists.

The Emotional Extremists:
People who depending on their mood are either:
On cloud nine/hallucinogens or in the bottom depths of hell, and they make sure that the entire world around them is aware of this.

The Physchical Extremists:
Go all out all physically.
While playing sports, the soccer field to them is not a green box filled with friends and loved ones. But a war zone or death and blood, and the only way to survive is kill or be killed.

The Intellectual Extremists:
(I chose the term subtle because you cant really see the brain at work)
The Brain/Mind is going full nitro throttle, or crash and burn 100% of the time.
In this category the mind is either always on or not on at all.
When given a task the IE will focus totally on the task at hand, to the extent that all areas of living are also effected.
During the ON mode, the IE will feel great anxiety and be more easily agitated. The IE has trouble sleeping and organizing thoughts, for the task at hand has taken up a vast majority of the users brain space.
During OFF, the user experiences periods of zero productivity.
The mind has burnt out and needs time to recuperate.
This can last anywhere from days to weeks to months, possibly even years. (depending on the stress level of the task)


well anyway, if your not an extremists that's probably the best.

have a good day
