I have to stop playing chess. Last week, I’ve been playing a few games every evening, so it became quite addictive again. Today, I spent several hours playing on the internet, and then went to play with mormons. It’s time to do something about it. I’ve noticed that throughout this week I used chess as a kind of reward after a day-long learning session. Perhaps, I should find another kind of reward; I don’t like to be addicted to anything of that kind. No games! The only game I’d like to play for the rest of my life is linguistics. How many spectacular things could I make out of the language if I’m not disturbed by silly video games? What’s really annoying is that while I’m playing these bloody games, I can sit at the computer without any sense of tiredness for days, whereas if I need to read something from the internet, it’s hard to sustain undivided attention for more than an hour.
Anyway, I must cease this foolish behavior and find better means to get rest, something that would not create tension between reason and emotions.
