Feeling The Stress

By Abe Newmeyer, October 6, 2021

Work & BusinessGratitude & Perspective

It’s really challenging to not be where, in my mind, I think I’m supposed to be. There’s usually some outside influence, peers, society at large, friends, etc. When I focus on those outside elements and start thinking about what I could have accomplished, what I should have done, where I could be if I had done this or that, I fill myself with doubts.

Self doubt woke me up last night. After a couple hours of sound sleep, second guessing myself interrupted my rest. I didn’t fall asleep for a few hours.

“Doubt kills” is a line from a movie. The statement is so true at this point. I’ve gotta leave no doubt and ignore the chatter of those not on my path. I can’t waste my time thinking of the past. The present is now and what I do now determines my future.

Today, Wednesday, October 6, 2021, I am grateful that:

I actually did rest well last night. Interrupted as it was, I still got a restful slumber.

John and I got a chance to speak briefly this morning. It was good to catch up for a bit. We didn’t talk about business. That was refreshing.

I’m feeling a bit better about my business direction. Not entirely sure if or when it’ll work, but at least I have some direction.

How do you ignore doubts?

How do you overcome your doubts?

Can you move with certainty at most times?

Be Great. Be Grateful!!!
