Happy MLK day to my one reader out there.

Last night I stayed up working until midnight, but managed to get my butt out of bed at 5:30 to go workout. These next 2 days are going to be nonstop and I am already getting myself overwhelmed. Just the ever-expanding laundry list of stuff that needed actioned yesterday.

But, I knew I needed to get up early, and I did. And I sprung some bucks on a Barry’s class. Muy caro. But it was a fine workout. Did arm strength training and running intervals with a focus on sprints. And the instructor today during our sprints would say “bump it up .5, don’t overthink it” and that second part of her instructions, don’t overthink it, WHOA MAN. Like I need to apply that to everything. It was so simple. Just do it, don’t think about it, don’t stress about it, don’t worry about it. So I cranked up by that .5. Going to apply that “don’t overthink, just action” to work today. Go through that laundry list.

I also was like, “okay if I can run at 9.5 for a full minute I can write that case study, review 2 docs, and send off 100 emails.” LOOOL let’s seeeee! But I mean, good visualization practice, right?

Happy Monday, may it be the best Monday ever. As my first ever boss Pierre would say, “just f*cking do it or fall behind.”

Tough love lol.
