Work on you for you

Saw Edwin Lacierda the other day. He was the Presidential Spokesperson in 2010. I also saw old colleagues in Congress. It felt good to bump into these people. But I am getting tired of politics. Is it ungrateful to say that? I feel like I'm ready to move on from that world. There was a time when I would pine for it. Maybe it's because it's an easy job that pays well. Len said it's a slippery slope, though. And of course, she's right. As always. I'm being hit by self-improvement memes lately. Work on you for you. Your younger self would thank you for bringing yourself to where you are now. Just do it. Some things are telling something. I've always been fearless in getting the things I want. Somehow you take less risk as you get older. Perhaps it's time to take big risks again. I'm ready to be my own man. I will work on those this week.

Hello Me

Hello, October 2023. Len said I should write down my goals. I know I should. And I could come up with so many excuses why I haven't gotten around to it. But, here I am now, putting words down for posterity. This is the longest I have been without a 9-5 job, and I have been adjusting to it. I panic once in a while because I feel I should be doing something. I am earning, but inflation does catch up with everyone. I recently started a gig that I am all too familiar with. But something feels different. It does not feel right. My head and heart are in a different place now. It's jarring to realize. I was surprised by my reaction to it all. So now I'm thinking I should be starting on our plans. And that elicits a different sort of panic. Maybe that should be my first goal: 'Do. Not. Panic.' Anyhow, I feel better putting something down. Even if it's just pure mental vomit. Have not done this in a while. Welcome home, I guess.
