Born In The Fire

One of my favourite quotes is from the opening lines of "Best I Ever Had" by Laurel. "Born in fire/ Golden waves upon the shore can't calm us/ Burn on the beaches we won."

I was born with a passion.

Or rather I was born to have a passion. And later I found it so much.

How do I focus on things

I constantly need to be reminded of my goals again and again.

I constantly need to be protected and taken away from distractions.

So what am I going to do about this

How am I going to do this

I struggle a lot with remembering what my main goals are if I have a lot going on at once.

This is why I like to always keep things streamlined, and really simple.

WRITING ALL MY GOALS DOWN AT FIRST

The first thing I have been struggling to do, and maybe this is REALLY REALLY SIMPLE, is just using a pen and paper. I NEED to write down what my goals are every day at the start of the morning.

I need to write down what my goals are, and what I am focusing on.

I took a fabulous photo of myself on the bus.

I need to arrive in plenty of time

I need to arrive early enough that I actually have enough time to start preparing things before I start doing things.

Just Saying No

I need to just say no.

I need to start saying no to new meetings sometimes.

I have already done it today and it felt very good. I am not talking about important meetings or work meetings.

I am talking about distractions meetings.

Meetings to say hi to people and meet new people.

I can easily end up with a lot of that. I don't have very good boundaries.

I have to get better at that. I am a new software engineer. I haver to focus.

Thank you so much.

What else is missing

I love myself. I love myself so, so, so much. I have such a hard time sometimes and I try really hard and I do my best to focus and I know that I am doing my best. I love myself.
