Recharging Required

I guess there will always be days like this. You wake up revved and ready to take on the world. In your mind, you’re convinced today will be a good day and you’ll get so much done and you will be on TOP of the world.

Well my plan went downhill by waking up late, starting late and then the groove never really kicked in. One procrastination led to another which led to shallow work and emails. Chasing the team to deliver on an itsy detail consumed most of my days which prompted more demotivation and lesser incentive to produce high quality work. I did however, manage to craft out a very difficult messaging in the morning. But alas, I just couldn’t sustain that momentum.

So in the spirit of being more forgiving and to take my own advice, what am I going to do with the time I have left?

Well I need a mental and physical break. So i got away from the house and now at 6pm want to re-start my day by going for yoga. Once I have that done I aim to start work at night on a more productive note.

So what could I have done better today? Maybe I could have taken a break earlier knowing I wasn’t going to find effectiveness in the slum I was in. Maybe I could have more discipline and put away the books and the internet. Maybe I shouldn’t have cooked cause that just led to soup and soup and more soup. Gosh, I curse my penchant for soup sometimes.

Right, time to stop this self-pitying and thinking and start doing and working. It’s time for a good class and then a fresher mind and body for the night. If I can get 2 more hours of solid work today, it would make me feel better that I have done something for the day.

Positive thinking Stace!
