Feeling Uninspired

by Chris on September 8, 2010

It’s one of those mornings that makes me want to quit. Today would be a nice day to clean up my resumé, shine my shoes, and seek shelter in a corner cubicle. Today, I would be the corporate world’s perfect yes man. Hey, I have experience now! Maybe I could even land a mid-level position! That was sarcasm, by the way.

This whole opening is sarcasm…

But I do feel uninspired. Nothing to write about, no looming challenges, no energy. I have a runny nose. It’s one of those mornings where everything just kind of sucks. But I’m not writing this to moan and groan. I’m writing this because this is the other side of the fence. And it needs documented. This is the greener grass I came looking for. But today’s pasture is just a plot of dirt.

This is all okay though. Fridays wouldn’t be Fridays without Mondays. And something will probably happen today that will make this morning worth it. Funny how that works, isn’t it?

    Gee you know Chris, I had that exact same kind of day yesterday. It was all over me. Lot’s of self refelction. Lots of “what the hell am I doing?” then I woke up today with purpose, excitement and strength. Pitty parties are okay, I suppose, for as long as those parties don’t involve an over consumption of intoxicating negative speak….. the hangover tends to be longer.

    Good on you for sharing this. I’d like to say you’re “brave”, but in reality you’re just keeping it real.

    There will ALWAYS be days like this. And I had to write about it… had to.

    Pete, this stuff comes and goes. Everything in life is so eb and flow. I wrote this stupid little update just to refer to later on when I’m having a fantastic day, as a reminder that one day soon… it’s just gonna suck again :)

    I’m not brave at all. This morning was rough, but if I can be honest, I couldn’t think of anything in the world to write about today, but couldn’t break the streak. So I thought this would be fitting.

    Got your email about October… replying shortly.

    Heh… I’m feeling that way now, but it’s mostly because I’ve been in my cubicle learning as much as I can all day long, and the day has left me feeling beat.

    There will always be days like this, James. Fortunately they go as quickly as they come :)
