It’s the weekend! It’s the day that I’ve been waiting for since last week. I didn’t have a chance to rest last weekend because I still went to the office to work. I realized that it wasn’t a good idea since it greatly affected my motivation for work this week. For the whole week, I’ve been feeling the exhaustion of work to the point of almost calling my office to apply a sick leave. The only thing that stopped me was the thought of why I even went to work on weekend and then took a sick leave on a weekday. It doesn’t feel logical, lol.
In the end, I still managed to get through this tough week and was able to accomplish my goals. There were hiccups throughout the process but it was resolved promptly that didn’t affect the overall schedule that I set for myself this week. Now, I can finally do my planned leisure activities without getting anxious about the coming week at work.
Now that I have a good amount of free time on my hands right now, here’s what I intend to do this weekend.
Sleep well
Being deprived of sleep will affect one’s well-being. Lack of sleep will have a long-lasting or permanent effect on one’s health. Prolonged sleep deprivation will result in difficulties in focusing, reacting, and learning.
I had this issue in the past few days when I felt like I was floating rather than being on point with the situations that I was facing at work.
Although I may not fully recover from it, at least I will have a good rest for the challenges that I will face this coming week.
Eat healthy dishes
The kinds of food that I ate in the past week were either fastfood or dishes that were not chosen carefully. This previous week, I wasn’t mindful enough about the food that I ate. I would either go for something fast and easy to eat or pick dishes that don’t provide me with the right or balanced nutrition for my body.
Starting this weekend, I will try to plan and find a way to make sure that I make the right decisions for my meals.
Shopping!!!
Since I didn’t have a chance to go shopping and buy my necessities, I planned to list down every important item that I needed for my house and my personal needs. One of them is floss 😅. Just imagine my frustration as soon as I learn that I no longer have a stock in my cabinet when I’m about to do my flossing. It doesn’t hurt to sleep at night without flossing but it’s just annoying that I keep thinking about it until I finally managed to sleep tight, lol 😂.
I realized that growing doesn't mean being able to do everything that I think I can do. It's about being able to understand the capacity that I have to manage my time and energy in such a way that I will be able to do my job properly. There's so much for me to learn and I'm eager to be able to fully grasp the things that I need to understand that will help me function better in my job.
