Wow, this week flew by! Adjusting to full-time work is a little tougher than I thought it might be. The commute is certainly a lot longer, and I need to change out of my sweats… but midway through the week something hit me.

I felt energized; even after only 4 hours of sleep (because my head was spinning with work solutions and thoughts), something clicked. I’m getting in the zone. Somewhat overwhelmed with everything, I realize that this is what I asked for.
I’m doing something that aligns with my purpose. Yes I believe in that stuff. I believe that I can make a difference. And that grounds me. Don’t get me wrong, my initial reaction is still to hit the ceiling when faced with unreasonable asks. But then it settles in, as I remind myself that I’ve been faced with much bigger hurdles before. And flew over them.

Does anyone still manage by post-it? This is what my laptop looks like (not so much the inspirational quotes, but I should throw some of those on mine too!:

Now, off to dance!

(Oh to be this young again…)
