Need to get back in focus
Posted on 29th July 2008, 9:32amYesterday I had a short business review with my mentor - and I really appreciate him for his time and advice.
Frankly, things are not going as well as it is supposed to be - I’m still not doing enough to make sure things are moving the way it needs to be.
In our short discussion, I realised again that I have in a sense “lost the dream” once again.
I’d admit, its very easy to lose focus when you have a regular 9am to 6am job. Afterall, its 9 hours of of your life everyday - a third of your life spent in a boring cubical.
Life is also full of distractions. Recently I had tonnes of them.
Last week, my computer fan messed up - and I had to send it back to IBM. When it came back, after some minor software updates, the operating system just refused to load. Spent the whole Sunday formatting it… and then it crashed again. Formatted again… and yesterday I almost lost my entire partition of data (all my data). Good thing it was recovered.
It doesn’t feel excellent to be surviving on total 6 hours of sleep for the last 2 days and knowing you won’t be really sleeping soundly until the weekend.
But I think I need to get back in focus. Daryl asked me yesterday - if I can guarantee a I’ll get $80,000 if I show 30 plans from now till the coming WLS, will there be a problem doing it?
I’m just not focusing on the right things recently.
Things will get better today.
