Lethargy.

With a mere thwo-and-a-half weeks to go until my final crit, I find my work currently stands thus:

-The sum total of that I produced for a crit prior to Easter.
-Two completed floor plans.
-Three completed sections.
-One completed model building.

This leaves:

-One section.
-One building model.
-Eight elevations.
-An undetermined number of details.

Quite a lot of work to produce I am sure you shall agree. The problem with the foregoing is that I ahve suddenly lost my drive and will. This is something I experience in cycles... I have weeks where I work work work and weeks where just nothing happens.

The problem is I strive for perfection at all times. Ergo this lethargy is unacceptable to me. There are friends of mine who just live for architecture. Now that is not how I want to live, life is living not working you understand, but whenever I stop work I feel guilty as others continue to work. It makes me feel lazy, which I cannot abide.

I am apprehensive and doubly nervous to pass the year. This makes me even more so lethargic, as I 'freeze' due to the pressure. A self fulfilling prophecy beckons unless I can get myself out of this lethargy soon.
