I’ve been saying this a lot lately. I’ve got a lot of work to do and I’ve been kind of whiny and complain-y about it. It’s a bad habit. I wanted lots of hard work and responsibility. And now that I have it I’m complaining? Yuck.
I walked most of the way home today. And I realized that I don’t have anything to complain or whine about. I wanted all of these things. It’s exciting to have a lot of work to do. To be able to work on and be involved in many different projects. To be on a leadership path. I’m lucky. I work hard. But I’m still lucky.
Not having a job. Not having financial security. Not having a career or work that lights you up. Or a team of awesome people to work along side. Those are things to complain about. The walk and the realization gave me some perspective.
It’s time to change “I’m so busy” to “I’m so lucky.” At least in my head. Time to shift my mentality from overwhelm and whininess to this is right where I want to be and I’m ready for the next challenge.
