Breaking The Waves

Right around noon yesterday I was strangely worn-out. It was probably fed by an unusually early-morning meeting, maybe some mental lag after four days off, not helped by a growing list of new problems that developed.

Stepping away for a lunch break is so useful in these situations.

I was still not feeling it as I stepped back into the office, but I did know that my energy would return no later than the next morning after a good night's sleep and a fresh start to a new day.

Some days, when the waves of weariness and failure come rolling in, you just picture the clear waters on the other side, duck your head, and hold fast.

The afternoon was better.
