We just celebrated our
nation’s birthday- Independence Day- the 4th of July. For me,
it signals I have 2 whole months of summer and I need to get outside instead of
on the couch rewatching (ahem binge watching) Orange is the New Black again.
I need to remind myself the
couch isn’t good for any aspects of my life, my tush, my health, and just my
sanity.
Getting home at the end of the day is such a relief that I just
collapse and hug my pets.
I am SO HAPPY to be home and with my husband or out with
friends.
However, I am immensely proud of my day's work. I work hard
each day to create the best content and support my team and fulfill my promise
to my company to do a great job every day.
The workplace can oppress people, so look for ways to
relieve the stress.
Incorporate that feel-good home feeling
with a homemade dinner with friends, with a new recipe. Interact with
co-workers on a small and fun challenge.
For me, working out, taking
on new assignments, interacting with my peers, trying new opportunities,
reading books, playing games stretches me- stretches my brain.
Going out of the safe zone
that you have created is the best way to stretch yourself.
This happens
when things get too common or easy, or it’s too much effort to go beyond,
because life does catch up with you, and some days, it’s all you can do to just
survive thru the day- awake, fed, washed, others fed, at work, etc.
However, I believe it is
important to go beyond the daily routine. You will always have a daily routine.
You have more hours in the day than just working- use them to your advantage!
Meditation and visualization are super important- imagine where you wish to be and with that intent, keep working towards that goal.
Bottom line- don’t get comfortable.
Like your job? Find new ways to improve!
Don’t like your job? Look
for new projects and ways to arc yourself out into a better position!
Unhappy in love? Love yourself
first and do what makes YOU happy.
Not flexible enough- try a
new class- even just one small change can keep your brain and body thinking differently.
Always keep improving yourself- you are unique and one of a kind!
