Beep beep beep goes the alarm at 6:30 this morning and after snoozing it a couple of times (a filthy habit I hope to one day rid myself of) I was off and going for the day, finally finishing up at 10:44 as I write this post. A day full of meetings, travel, general IT related problem solving, some skill acquisition, followed by more travel, a phone call or 3, a late dinner and some more work.
Reflecting on all the activities of the day, which part is the tiring part? Was any one particular activity tiring, or is the compound effect of them all? Or are today’s activities not actually the issue, rather the looming nature of all the other projects on my plate, both professional & personal, are they actually what causes the tiredness?
I’m not sure. I just know I felt like I despised the traveling. It seems like a waste of time, after not having to do it for two months straight.
Time, the one thing that we all have a level playing field with.
[Tuesday morning update: it appears I was tired, I slept through my alarm and didn’t wake until 9:20….10 minutes after my first meeting for the day. Oops ]
