SLEEPING ON THE WHEEL11/18/2019 No matter how excellent you are in what you do, when you are tired, feeling low, and lacking self-care, you can slip into an auto-pilot and bad things can happen.
What to do when you feel that the tank is getting low? 1. Get out of your routine and walk around. 2. Ask for help and delegate. 3. Refuse to be involved in pity parties and complaints bureau. 4. Talk to a family member, friend, and a trusted advisor. 5. Call it a day and sleep. 6. Power down all tech gadgets and social media. 7. Journal your thoughts and write the best moments you want to cherish. 8. Exercise and breathe fresh air. 9. Watch a funny movie, listen to your favorite music, and play with a pet. 10. Enjoy silence and solitude. Have peace in yourself and bounce back tomorrow.

TAKING SHARP TURNS11/13/2019 For two weeks, I have been procrastinating in writing my manuscript.
I waited for external cues to tell me that I need to write now. I waited for that demand to come from elsewhere to tell me that I need to start now. I waited for the internal eureka to say that I am ready to write it. Of course, two weeks passed and I don't have anything to show. I should have at least 20-25 pages of material by now, or more. I could have enjoyed that momentum, I tell others to ride on and be carried forward. I could be on my way to the goal of being published! Just as I am learning that there is no reason to wait for anyone or anything. Setting aside that sacred time to write is a must. Writers write as farmers farm and dancers dance. There is no excuse that is great enough not to write. So now, I write, will write and will continue to write until this is done. And write some more! k here to edit.

ENJOY THE PLATEAU MOMENTARILY11/11/2019 It's nice to reach a plateau.
You can have a break, walk around, smell the roses, enjoy the scenery, take some photos along the way, have a snack, and rest your legs after the long drive. But you can't stay too long. All plateaus lead to a decline. While staying there increases pleasure and comfort, it doesn't allow you to reach new heights where you can experience a different level of accomplishment- the next summit. Think about that in your organizational life and in your career trajectory. You might be in a plateau too long to figure out you are running circles and not moving an inch to your destination. |
