You were feeling completely overwhelmed...
You attempted to write a 'to do list' only to end the day with a 'things I didn't get completed list...'
You even started to consider if this was the right job for you...
Your evenings (when you weren't swamped with work) consisted of you complaining about how you have too much on your plate...
Your drive to work starts off fine but the closer to work you get the more frustrated you become...
Then something happens...
You start to figure out ways to work smarter and not harder...
You rely on those with whom you work to assist and help; more importantly, you start to trust them more to do more thus removing stuff from your plate...
You begin to do things you've not been able to do in the past because now you have a little time...
You aren't just focused on staying afloat, you are focused on swimming clear across the lake...
You are becoming comfortable in your job and you're now finding certain tasks to be mundane and trivial...
You now occasionally find yourself bored with what you do at work and your 'zest' isn't quite what it used to be...
If you are like most humans (which I'm confident you are), you have most likely found yourself in both camps at several times throughout your life. The question is how long do you allow yourself to say in either of these camps.
If you allow yourself to stay in either of these camps for too long, you might not find a way out...
