An uphill battle.





For a while I was getting a bit sick of Facebook so I just updated my status as Rhys Cooper: "Never stops working". I did this partly because I didn't want people to keep trying to hang out with me and partly because I thought it would be funny for some reason to make everyone think I was such a hard worker. I'm not sure if it was already the truth or if it became a self fulfilling prophecy but I did end up working all the time. I worked so much that I pretty much burnt myself out.

I just looked back at my goals for this year and realised that I didn't put anything in there about allowing time for myself. And once again it seems that I've started to focus every last minute to achieving my goals with no thought of what the consequences might be. I've been either at work or in meetings for the last 13 days straight. And then when I'm not working, I find myself coming home and working some more. However, I still manage to justify to myself that this is perfectly ok because I'm smashing all my current goals. I'm thinking that I should really be committing myself to some more "me time" but at the moment I'm just not sure if its possible to fit that in.

One good thing though is that my trip with the gf's family to Bangkok is booked in so at least I've got something good to look forward to. And, I'm feeling great about crushing these goals, particularly getting rid of all of my debt.

For today, I think I might go for a walk around my neighbourhood and see if I can get some interesting photos to share on here. Oh, and grab a coffee while I'm at it. I'm off....
