Weary of the hustle
July 18, 2008
For the past few weeks I’ve been up and at it every single day: working (tons), talking to a select few about possible future plans, exploring options, doing a lot of contemplation and consideration. Planning planning planning for Comic-Con and my business trip. Putting some major time into blogging, logging friend time. Basically, I’ve been a busy beaver at effecting some real change in my life. After all, if you’re unhappy, right? More on that later.
It’s taken its toll, though. Last night I turned on my laptop after getting home, started to work on a couple things and found myself lying on the floor talking to BF on the phone like I was a kid home from school with no homework.
That’d be a sign that I’ve been too intense for too long. I’m giving myself a small break tonight: I don’t have to do anything on the career front, the selling the truck front, or the alternate income front. I am formally giving myself permission to enjoy Friday night. Just hang out with some old friends and catch up. If networking happens as part of it, fine, if it doesn’t, fine. I can get back on the horse on Saturday.
I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend and fun plans!
There are some things in life that, while worth doing, aren’t sustainable. You can only run for so long before you must rest.
E.C.: Good to hear from you! Hope all is going well on your end.
