Lesson learned: self assessments are not to be trusted [in my case].
Oh my word. Just the other evening I thougth to myself, that I really made some headway with regard to being more flexible throughout any given day. I was under the impression, that unforseen situations no longer cause as much havoc, and disrupt my entire day as much as they still did, let’s say two years ago. That’s what I thought. But the proof is in the pudding, as we know. And what do you think? I was proven wrong yet again.
The cause for this morning’s changed routine is not relevant now. But it ended up affecting the entire day, my mood, my productivity, in short everything. I was so disappointed in myself for not having made any progress at all. I do try, but apparently not enough. So, while this is a discouraging setback, giving up is not an option. No matter what, I have to persevere. Even if it won’t get better going forward either, perhaps I can be proud of myself for sticking with it.
