Day 1 checking in,
I mean it feel strange to write this number, but it is cool at the same time.
Because this first day is not like the last first day I had, or even close to the previous ones.
I am learning my lessons.
So I conquered this first day, I avoided the trap of the chaser effect, which would trick me that it would be cool to relapse since I was at day 0, but there will be no day 100 if you don't complete day 1,2,3.
How you do anything is how you do everything, and I am working to reach that everything.

 

Nice job. I admire your resilience. I'm curious why you change your profile picture back and forth?

 

Check in day 37. I'm trying to stay busy. Been doing more weight training these last few days. It's been helping me blow off steam. Going on a date this weekend.

 

Day 44 / 100.

 

Day 1

 

Check in Day 1(50)

Hello Spartans,

I worked for several hours on my project and made some progress. But I was still disappointed at the end of the day because the project is still not complete. And there is more work needed than I can complete in a few hours or even days. So yet another week goes by and and get another week will begin on Monday with failure on my back. I checked my finances today and they continue to worsen.

But I have not quit.

And I think that at this point the knowledge I gain from my continued research will not be nearly as important in my life as the process I’ve been through. I have been Facing failure everyday for years now. And I’ve been studying myself very closely during the struggle. And like @Espi1971 said to me recently, I’ve come to develop some deep resilience to adversity. Deeper than I’ve ever known in my life. And no matter if the project fails. No matter if I fail. I’ve proven to myself I can face failure and keep swinging. I can face doubts and fears and the daily whimper inside that wants to quit. And I can carry on.

I feel a bit better after writing this post. I hope someone out there will take benefit from it someday too.

Be well Spartans

 

Day 9

 

Oh you know it's just that between my various problems there also social anxiety and sense of inadequacy, so from time to time when I feel that sense of inadequacy I put the real me as profile pic to remember that there's nothing wrong in being me

 

Checking in: Day sixteen.

 

Doing my best to stay the PMO course after a wicked workweek..yesterday 20 more layoffs were announced at work (about 10% of our total workforce).

Also, I've been moved to another sales team, and I am angry and resentful and fearful about the change. I also feel like the company is trying to get rid of me.

It's been months since I set the goal of exploring other job opportunities. Maybe this is the catalyst to get me to finally action that goal. All signs seem to continue pointing me in the direction of change, but I don't want to explore it, because I fear it.

Right now I just want to quit my job, but I am not in a financial position to do that..quitting will only make things worse.

So I am gonna have to do my best to adapt to the changes. There are, after all, 20 other people who don't even have a job anymore.

Maybe this change is a good thing?

 

Day 11

 

Fear kills more dreams than failure will ever kill.
Because fear kills hope. Fear can age you.
Fear can hold you back from doing what you know you are capable doing.
In this moment I can't really say what you should do.
I will just remember you that Aristostele once said "we are what repeatedly do".
Don't confuse who you are with what you are feeling.
It is normal to have some fear, I mean it is a bad situation, people are losing their job, but this does not mean that you should stop yourself from pursuing your dream.
Just remember that behind all your feelings there is nothing.
Whichever man you are aspiring to be,whichever position you are seeking, whatever the final goal is.
Act like the man that get that goal. Act and the feelings will adapt.
Wishing you the best.

 

Day 2 checking in.
I will call it an easy day.
Situation is becoming calmer. Went for a walk and studied something.
Will do my work in storage this afternoon.
In the evening I will just see what is open

 

day 44

i finished one part of my delayed project, that a whole week to complete that but when i deliver it, my mentor said its good and enough. and wow im so happy it might be the first step for me to finish this project even tho its maybe just a 5% of the whole project...so today i treat my self with some nice food's and good sleep and not to work that today, as self reward for tomorow i will continue this project.

@the alpha project dont give up man and pray to god to make it easy for you...i even dont know if this project can be done or not.. some people said because i took this too long its a failure to me, im confused eventually, but the only thing i can do is keep working on it and pray to god that is not a failure. be strong my firend

there is one time i was treated like that, my boss make me compete with my fellow coworkers for whoever complete the task will stay and the loser leave the company...not only that she moved our position to Event team...which needed an entertainer skill (and ofc we lack of that skill) we given a target that so imposible to our body, ofc we can do that, but for how long ? 2 week's maximum until our body colapsed and the task was for 3 month and compared to my rival coworker im not a kinda of person who close to bosses, i hate doin that, im just a person who do the job and go home, so my rival is personally closer to my boss than me... on that day i think that my boss want to get rid of me..... i mean like OFC!!!

but rather than being down angry or else... im just gratefully accept it, im not looking for other job, im not being jerk at my office, im just doing the thing regulary like there is no competition, im doing the task ofc with my best effort... i was said to myself that thank god, i have 3 month to saving my salary its better than fired at the moment and not saving any... and maybe its for the last time but i will give my best for my other coworker so even if i didnt work in this company anymore... we will having a good chat and still being friend.. i even did not bashing my rival...

but this mentally eventually saved me.... my rival who had a greater advantage start being angry to other coworkers.. and become a jerk... and on the third month other coworker suggest that my rival must leave (even tho my boss said the opposite but my other coworkers tell that my rival become a jerk )

sorry for long writing but the point is dont be mad, just be grateful of it, who knew that this path is the path that eventually will lead you to great sucess. but if ur looking for other job dont take that as a personal revenge to your current company just be a polite coworkers

my other boss was said to me that " u come in our company in a good way, so if u want to leave make sure its a good way too"

stay strong brother
