Take A Break

I need to take breaks; literally just not work when I'm stuck.

Have been feeling a little stressed over a particular task at work.... getting confused over what I'm expected to share and forgetting for which period i was supposed to do. For 2 days, I was busying myself but worrying about having nothing to show and not being able to answer questions.....

Until today; I ended work earlier than usual, went for my workout i haven't done in 2 months, came home to doom scroll while having dinner and suddenly during my shower, it hit me. Like a goddamn epiphany - I suddenly realise what I should do!

As cliche as it sounds, we really do need breaks to be better. And i guess I'm just built different. Different from the colleagues and mentors I admire.

How are they constantly on the drive and still is meticulous and accurate at their work? Actually properly functioning with very little sleep (like 4 hours). I for one, will be zombie-fied if I sleep less than 5 hours before a workday...... And with so many things happening, my heart goes on an overdrive and I stop functioning at my best 🥲

I just have to learn to accept it. One monster at a time, I am just built different.
