Another week has passed.

Learning a lot. About work and life.

Work-wise, I have had to re-strategise and came up with a direction that is hopefully going to work for me, my well-being and how efficient I can be in my new role.

I bought a monthly gym subscription, literally just outside out of my work. So I can go to the gym, have some work out and training after work. It’s gonna help me to reduce stress, be healthier and stronger too. Plus, I really don’t want to travel on the tube at 5pm – it’s madness. I can’t deal with it. It gives me so much anxiety and more stress after a long day of working.

Eating-wise, I am trying to stick to anything convenient, tastes nice and will help me lose weight too now that I’m going back to the gym.

Life-wise, I gave some thought today about what happened in the past. I hope they are learning in a parallel way as how I see it. I mean in the positive way. I would have hoped anyone that follow similar career paths that I do would see similar things with what I am seeing.

I enjoy giving out energy, and help, and support to other people, it doesn’t matter who they are or what their pasts are like. Even if it’s for a moment, or a period of time, I feel like that is my duty. That is in my nature.

I have learned to giving out those things to only anyone I see fits. And that takes time, and it requires yourself to have a good people-reading ability – which I think I have got this. I can read people quite well because I constantly try to analyse things with what I see and what I hear.

The downside of that is it exhausts you, it drains you. Because you care so much. You’re just looking out for yourself and the people you love. So what’s next?

Find balance.

I think finding balance is a life-time journey. It’s really hard to learn that in a short period of time.

And when I think of this, I look at the bookshelf that I have and look at the book – The subtle art of not giving a fuck by Mark Manson. I absolutely adore him and his experience. I need to read more and learn more going forward.

But at the same time, I need to allow myself time to rest, to chill, and to be around with the people I care about.
