August 1rst, 2017- Update and August goals- having a drink with friends

Welcome August!

London seems less crowded than usual, and I started the day on a holiday mood, meaning, I watched pictures of remote islands on my computer screne.

Now, since I am not there yet, I need to pull myself together and see how I will make the best of this month.

My updates?

I have advanced a lot in July, but there isn’t anything tangible yet.

Should I try to forget myself in daily reveries, drink and use other abusive substances, (i.e. chocolate)?

Or should I take a different perspective and try again?

I will take the second option.

The positive thing is I got some feedback in July, so I can modify my profile to put into advantage my best aspects.

And a glass of wine could also help, especially if it is shared with friends 😉

July 11, 2017- What to do when you fall on a star :-) -Correcting your course

Hello July,

so what if I fall on a star, and the moon is still further away?

The first reaction is to feel unsatisfied, after all, this star was not where I was aiming for. And feel guilty. I should have done this and this and that. Or feel powerless. After all, I seem to have objectives and I don’t fulfill them as I should. And then, if I accept the result, does it make me someone who is stuck there?

Feeling bad about oneself is wasting our time.

I have tried it, it just gives you unwelcome psychosomatic annoyances.

Change objectives?

Well, if they are changing every day you lose a sense of direction.

But they can be a little bit flexible.

How about creating exceptions and correcting our course?

Here is how it can go/

I am great anyway, and objective X is worthwhile.

I said that I would wake up at 5.30 and today I woke up at 9.00.

I needed this because last week I took a business trip and I needed time to recover.

So much the better.

Instead of feeling guilty I give myself a free day, for rest but also for taking a mental vacation out of everything and reorienting myself towards the North Star.
