Hello dear, as January progresses, how is your energy? Have we thrown ourselves back into the rat race?

Ten days into January, I am trying my best to rest well. I am living slowly, I am hacking myself almost every minute, I am constantly fighting with my own mind; I am hard-wired to negative thoughts, it’s like I am addicted to thinking negatively. And to re-wire myself differently needs a lot of effort and time. To write good thinking and positive affirmations in the morning and in the evening is my strategy to create a space in my mind. This space is intended for good thoughts and positive points of view regarding whatever events happening around me.

Some of my colleagues got a promotion, and I am admittedly jealous of them. I then created bigger, better stories about this event. I may not get promoted, but hey… I have a job, it’s huge .. in hard times like this… It’s really a blessing. And I actually like my ‘corporate job’, not to mention the perks like free gym membership, and all the friends I have in the office, some fancy dinner once in a while, and they pay me well. My salary feels small because I still have many debts to pay. I actually enjoy coming to the office, having breakfast on my desk, and saying hi to all my fellows.

Perhaps, I’m prepared for bigger things… Much much bigger than a promotion. I am ready now to handle big things because I know what it takes. S l o w l y, I am not going to follow any rat race. I have my own pace and I love my life now.
