To Practice Picking Ourselves Up

Today I have the chance to pick myself up several times.

First is that I came to office later than usual, so some of the routines were not done. I picked up quite well and continued again. It’s just that I didn’t look at m to-do list.

The practice began in the afternoon as I was helping my colleague to solve simple problem. But it turned out that my ego was hurt that why my code cannot work while other colleague’s code is working well. So I spent much time to compare the scripts and yet I found little difference. From a 25-minute task, it became more than 1.5 hour.

It was a good test to pick myself up. I had difficulties to do that as I still want to close the deal. Finally I managed to let it go and start to concentrate on other things. It was not easy as I kept thinking about it, but things were progressing especially as another colleague already came back with the things I requested.

Also, I learned to take the courage to make the booking for the lunch of those joining the office at similar time.

When coming back, another challenge to pick myself arises. I want to do one by one. It did go through well initially with sorting out the papers.

However, after that I started to browse on football news and the desire to do one by one starts to be reduced. It became a fatigue where I just want to sleep or rest. At the same time, I want to explore several tasks that I want to do.

So again, this is a good chance to practice the skills of picking myself up. Not sure which one I will do first but it is fine as long as we keep trying.
