Phew!
What happened to Monday? Seriously, I swear it was here just a little while ago. Contrary to popular belief, I was motivated to write my blog yesterday but the scheduling of this got away from me. I had an urge to clean and vacuum the house, (please don't tell me I'm pregnant again!), then before I knew it, it was time for little one to go to bed again.
The problem is our computer is in the baby's room. This used to be the office, and technically still is, but I finally taught myself to call it his room. So the computer needs to come out. As I write this I am on a race against the clock before his next nap. I'll update you re: Monday's topic tomorrow. Today I have bigger fish to fry.
So here is my personal improvement for this week. Stop procrastinating. ("Ooooooo!", I say sarcastically, "How original. Not!"). How many New Year's resolutions have had this as their number one task? Ooodles, I say. But, this is something I need to get through. Because I am REALLY good at tackling all the small and piddly stuff, but the big stuff gets put off every time.
Example. I have cleared my "to read" pile, pulled the recipes I need, made appointments, made grocery lists, etc. BUT, I need to call my HR department. I got an e-mail from the head of HR back in early December. (Yes, I know it's January). This e-mail was to advise me that there are some available positions in my department. So I look the postings over and realize I already have this job. WTH? Now, a normally sane person would call this person and get a clarification, right?
Here's my problem, I don't know if I want to go back. I flip flop everyday. And even if I do go back it won't be to my old job because I moved to where our head office is and I would need a different job (if one is available). So I don't even want to re-apply for my old job. Again, here is where a sane and rational person would call HR to get a clarification.
What do I want to do? Sit on the couch, grab a bag (the big one of course) of Ruffles Hot Wings chips (love them!) read a book and blithely ignore the situation altogether. Sigh! I was reminded of the saying "Name it and shame it!" So I have, now I need your words of encouragement.
Help!!!!
Stop beating yourself up and stop torchering your body with sensless worry and bad bad food. Sometimes procrastination is the right thing. If it was important enough you would have done it already. Some of the things I put on the pile never did get done and the funny thing is, no one died. On the job front... you need to decide and commit. I realize this is way easier said than done but conflicts of the head and heart are never easy. Follow your heart and your head will get you through it. Follow your head and your heart will come to understand. The point is follow one or the other and stop the madness!
