I for one am very hard on myself. I set goals, various types of goals for that matter. I set timelines too. Sounds crazy but it keeps me motivated.
Lately, things have not been going the way I planned and hoped it would. Work has been hell with client’s failure to understand and respect T+C’s, process flow, chain of command and etc. Will elaborate this in another designated post.It has been bad for me in all honesty but I kept on going. Despite the lack of funds, I kept the faith. I spread myself thin on a few projects at one go. Learning and exploring the chemistry with new team players.
Sadly when the chemistry with the players were awesome, the receiving end gave much problems. I tried, I hold on, pushed forward but I had to call it quits. I just couldn’t take it. I was too stressed. My body and skin was showing obvious signs of stress. I was constantly tired and edgy.
It hit me when I really enjoyed my nephew’s company so much. The cheekiness and how naive he was. I had much fun being silly with him and he had a fit laughing at me. That was when I realized, I too need to cut some slack on myself. Take it slow. Pause. Inhale and exhale at my own pace.
I’m still learning to not beat myself up. To smell the flowers as I go. I’m currently taking some time off to restratergize myself and my life.
Wish me luck!
