What do you struggle with?
I find that I put myself down, a lot.
I’ll work extremely hard, and then enjoy a weekend. And then on Monday morning, I’m asking myself if I’m focused enough. Should I have been working through the weekend? Am I utilizing my time wisely?
I struggle with celebrating the small victories, with appreciating my accomplishments and really being proud of myself.
Too often, I worry about the next thing I should be doing. Could I have done that better? Why didn’t I do it better? What am I doing next?
A while ago my mom said, “don’t forget to clap for yourself.”
I was raised to win and to keep winning. But even now as I ride into work, I’m wondering if I’m doing everything ok. Am I working hard enough? Am I calling my family enough? Should I be doing more? The ever present questions that never escape my mind.
It’s hard to find a balance in a society that tells you, that you’re never doing enough. I struggle with finding peace of mind when I take a break from the hustle.
“No days off”
“Sleep when you’re dead”
“Your competition isn’t taking a break”
I’m trying to teach myself to breathe. To enjoy life without the follow up of a mental beat up.
Yes I’m hungry, yes I hustle, but I also like to sleep, and drink too much sometimes, and loosen up.
What do you struggle with? How are you handling it?
Stay motivated. Stay organized. Stay inspired.
Love,
J
