Stronger Than Before – 09

Weekly Intention: Everyone goes back to school and work this week. My manager is out of town so all of my week will be getting focused and caught up to speed on my new work and getting ahead in my old job so I can make sure to give him more time when he’s back. Jake will be gone most of this week and I will have to juggle work and pickup/drop off which I know will be tough. I also have to go to the kids’ school twice this week. Personally, my intention is to spend a bit extra time resting and a beat longer which each kid to make sure I am not rushing through this week. At work, I want to also get organized a bit.

This month’s intention is: Physically Strong: This is your month. Get out there and get strong. Increase the weights. Add more cardio. Make a plan. You can do this. You have it in you. Still working on the yoga. Will think about my March plans this week.

One way I will stretch this week:  i will be starting to make decisions and that will require stretching (at work.)

One boundary I will set this week: i will have to be clear with my work/home boundaries this week as I will be mostly an only-parent this week.

This week, I will focus on pleasing: hmm i think this week will be dedicated to Jake as I give him the room to go on his business trips.

One new thing I will learn this week: i am taking an AP Physics course with David which is kicking my …. since I know nothing.

One area where I will go deeper this week: i guess i will dive deeper in the product roadmap this week, too.

What do I need to sit with this week? i need to sit with understanding my job better, diving deeper and carving some solid work for myself.

I am looking forward to: feeling a bit more at home here. i know it will take some time.

This week’s challenges: balancing work and home this week without jake.

Top Goals: 

  • Work:  more 1-1s, product roadmap and reviews, making a plan for next steps.
  • Personal: making march plan, picking something to do daily. 
  • Family: spending time with both boys this week and making sure they get back into the groove of school. 

I will focus on my values:

  • Love: i want to spend my evenings with a little self-care this week.
  • Learn: learn more about the organization as a whole.
  • Peace: peace with juggling things this week.
  • Service: this week’s service is all the drop off and pick ups maybe? šŸ™‚
  • Gratitude: for having the space to juggle all i have to juggle this week.

This week, I want to remember: that it’s all going to look different in three months and then again in six months. be patient.
