Did I Make Things Better Today?

"You look tired," said the student as we wrapped up our session.

He was right. I was famished. 8:30 and no dinner yet.

And yet, I wasn't discouraged the way I've often gotten when fatigued.

I cataloged my day:

- Helped boss solve a tough problem
- Reunited with an employee and celebrated a project completion
- Set up an important meeting for next Tuesday- Had one-on-ones with two employees
- Got in a half hour bike ride
- Tutored three students for three hours

No doubt I'd burned energy so I was exhausted physically.

But it was the good kind.

I made things better today. That made the difference.
