Reality vs. Expectations

So - first, truth. I’ve been waking up with a 1000 pound gorilla on my chest the last month thinking about going back to work.

Zero clue how I’m gonna make my life work.

Relate?

My pressing question is - have I done enough with the time I’ve been off?

By most peoples standards this is a resounding yes. For those of you know who know, my questioning would basically validate that I’m crazy 😜 but still -

Worry. Anxiety. It’s all relative.

Reality vs Expectations.

It’s hard to live expectation free, in fact I don’t personally think that works. I expect to honor my own word, I expect to fulfill on my own promises. Sometimes I don’t and I expect to make it right and set new promises. Otherwise I’m living small.

Here in the Daily, there are some do’s and don’t. Rx by yours truly so take it with that grain.

I’ll post them more in detail later - here’s one.

I don’t sit and stew, or at least 😂 I stir the pot in my humanity but and definitely not for long and certainly not forever.

It does me no good.

I’m THE FIRST to validate feelings also the first put you/me on the butt 🍑 with a LETS GO SISTER.

It’s insanity to live in regret

It’s insanity to think you can control all the things

It’s insanity to EXPECT perfection, strive for it sure expect it no.

It’s also insanity not to acknowledge your own thoughts!

“Autopilot” in your brain is more like a walking coma. The kids are saying “stay woke.”

Yes, lets.
