Endurance is very hard work, it's why we're all exhausted, also why we (me definitely) are craving escape. Like, I don't want to drink but if I could, I'd be LURRYING into it. The chance to switch off the relentless fear for a while would be LOVELY https://twitter.com/micheal_debarra/status/1260551175117475841
Endurance has to be done in 'bouts', with a dual carrot/stick approach. I tell myself to get as far as lunchtime then I can ate some sweets or watch an episode of Brooklyn 99 or lie spread-eagled on the floor for 15 minutes. Then start all over again
Staying in today is the only way to Endure. Projecting into tomorrow or next week is a mistake because right now, today, we don't have the resources to last that long. But day-by-day we'll most likely manage to bootstrap enough endurance to get through 24 hours
Even so, we'll hit a wall on the regular. Let it happen, whatever form it takes (crying, shouting, ateing or drinking too much, getting obsessed with blue cowboy boots.) Let's not be mane to ourselves, most of us have never before been this scared or challenged
