back to it

Back to work today.

I'm observing where I let my energy go as I ease back into this work-a-day life, monitoring when I send some off on a wild goose chase and calling it back before I do myself psychic or immune-system-affecting harm.

Goal-setting activities for the year are due today and I just put the finishing touches on mine. No need to obsess about them, since they represent a checkmark on someone else's list to me.

What jazzes me more is following the path of becoming more and more of who I really am - I wonder how that kind of goalsetting would fly in HR? Lately the spotlight in the interrogation room has been focused on confronting limiting beliefs, questioning their validity, seeing the ridiculousness in how Belief A does not compute with Reality B. Picturing a belief as my reflection in the water looking down from a dock, and I can just as easily walk away from it and erase it forever as stand there and maintain it. Watching the belief dangle from a string that’s held between my fingers over the Grand Canyon, just a nano-second away from being let go of, floating away to the bottom on the breeze.

Until one day, as a friend so aptly put it, "Oops. Guess it must have fallen in."
