Psyche Check

How do you feel about your work today?

Great, or just not in the mood?

When we look at our approach to our work on any given day (or hour), it often comes down to these two options.

“Great” can become “Not in the mood” when something sets us back. We can get stuck in the delta between “where I was” and “where I am”. It’s how athletes lose games. Easily done.

But “Not in the mood” can become “Great” again if we instead choose to forget about “where I was”, accept “where I am”, and play on from there with focus. This is hard. It gets easier, with practice.

Psyche check yourself – are you in the frame of mind you want to be in? You get to choose.
