Just a quick note about something that happened today. Just thinking about the lunch I had with my coworker (the same coworker I vented about in my last entry). Our big major projects and deadlines have simmered down just a little bit, so there's less tension in our office workspace.
One thing I realized was... during lunch, I went first to order. I was given a number and had to be the lead in finding a seat. This type of "leading" freaks me out. My old habit would of let him go first so that he could choose the seating arrangement and I would follow. It also didn't help that the restaurant was crowded with a couple of tables open. Alas, I lead the charge. I was on my own navigating towards one of the only open tables. A lot of people around and semi close quarters. Once I cemented our seating arrangements, everything was fine.
Weird how it just dawned on me. I just did something semi-automatically today, that would of totally freaked me out and send me into panic mode 6 month's ago.
There are two basic choices we have in dealing with our struggles:
#1. Make Excuses or #2. Make Progress
Progress! You have to keep at it. Whether you make big or small gains, it's progress.
