The hardest part of this for me so far, is on some days all the other demands in my life seem to outweigh my ten tigers work. On those days I keep putting off my training, putting off the stances and the pushups and the forms until the end of the day. Then I get overwhelmed with the idea of trying to play catch up that night, or the next day. It seems to go best for me when I make time early to get a lot of the requirements done.
Last night I still had a lot to do and was feeling discouraged. I decided that discouraged or not, I was going to get up and do what I could. Once I got going, I realized how little time it actually took for me to get done. I just hope I can remember that the next time I'm struggling.
Now, I want to hear from everyone else. What has been the hardest part for you so far?
This is the hardest thing for me. Writing in the blogs and journaling. Reading Anne's post about spreadsheets reminded me that I was suppose to be keeping a personal journal about my thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Journaling is something I have never done before and have just realized that I have not done it yet. The blogs are something I think I tend to stay behind on. Work and school take up so much of my time. I have trouble just finding time to breathe and have some down time. On the occasions I read the blogs, I can't seem to think of anything to say. Perhaps I am just not applying myself enough to this task. At least I can say that I read the blogs more than I watch tv. As far as the personal journal, I guess I need to make time for myself and personal reflection and then remember to write it down.
ReplyDeleteDean, I'd suggest you check your email outbox, since you do some fine reflecting when you communicate with others. Perhaps you need to give your journal a name, or an email address?
ReplyDeleteThe hardest part of the TT program, for me, is just feeling that I'm doing the right thing. As Steven said, it's easy to get steamrolled by daily life, and is it always right to take time for my team members and myself?
