I'm so tired of working with people that just take on more and more stuff in their lives than they're really capable of doing in a quality way and just run themselves ragged, and thus do a mediocre job of pretty much all of it, watching them hanging on the edge of a cliff all the time and having zero time for actually collaborating in a meaningful way.

Sadly I think this is at least partly because a lot of people are driven to this kind of desperate flailing by the necessities of a precarious life under modern neoliberal capitalism. But a big part is also just I think some kind of psychological feature of people's minds these days, perhaps related to the loss of attention and focus due to screens and social media and shit. Flitting from one thing to another, never having the courage (or self-awareness) to admit there are limits and say no to any of it, hence biting off way more than they can chew.

It's just sad.

#StayBalanced #KnowYourLimits

Tomorrow will be a big day for me as I am heading back to the rush and tumble of the workplace after being signed off with anxiety and depression a while back.

I have been supported by some really understanding GPs and NHS staff and I am still learning that I have to be honest with my feelings & emotions.

Although not a pleasant experience, I have learned much about myself over the last few weeks.

I still have a way to go, but I'm getting there. 🙂

It. Is. Not. An. Excuse.

Well, I tried flood icing some cutout cookies. I learned a lot, so that's good!
