Читать книгу Comfortable Chaos - Carolyn Harvey & Beth Herrild - Страница 40

Let’s say you are finishing up the latest revisions on a major project. Your level of stress and frustration has skyrocketed because it has to be done by tomorrow morning and the constant stream of interruptions is making it impossible to get any work done. With personal plans for the evening, you don’t want to be working late. Since this type of scenario happens quite frequently, your frustration is even higher.

It’s very easy to say “my time is not my own,” or “there is no way I can control my workload.” This is a tempting thought pattern but one that needs to be broken if you are going to make changes. Who is in charge of your time and your life? You always have choices even if they are choices you are not willing to make. Shift your thinking from “I can’t believe this is happening to me” to “what can I change?” The possibilities will be more likely to emerge once you have let go of the victim mentality.
