End of Year Ponder

Christmas is coming.

This is my first time, not being in a rush to set up the Christmas mood in the house or in the office. It's only a few days to December. I am taking conscious effort to start something but laziness is getting the better of me.

Not to mention the datelines of my mini projects at work. I know my boss is improving in his communication with staff but boss is still boss. When he has an idea, and he wants it fulfilled, implementation and execution is priority. Just when I thought I survived one experience, old ones come back to haunt while new ones are ready to jump at me. But still, I like what's going on at the moment. It's a lot easier than my previous job in the other unit of the same company.

I guess because I am looking forward to a nice and quiet holiday up on the hills, more than anything, in the coming week. When I return, there is going to be shitloads to do and roadshows to attend.

Lately, the question of upgrading myself with a higher qualification returned to my mind. But it takes commitment, and commitment at this time being, is at a crossroad. There are a couple of other things that I'd like to spend my time on too. So having all of them in next year's calendar is somewhat daunting. I'm trying to adjust my perspective right now on my fears and my ability to cope.

As my Pneoxian would say, "There's no need to be afraid (to try). What's the worst that could happen? At least you get to find out (if it's what you want or if it suits you). If it doesn't work then move on. At least you've tried/done it."

Well, I shall put this "file" back aside again. I should just enjoy the remaining days of this year as it comes.

Chill Rayn, chill.
