Embracing Discomfort.

Back home.

After a manic vacation that I needed a vacation from. Travelling to India, and staying there, is becoming more of a chore than ever before. No enjoyment, no solitude, no peace, nothing. But then again, the family & food make up slightly for the negatives. But all in all, 3 weeks is way too long.

The next time I go, I’ll be better prepared. My discipline, routine, self worth, diet, and vision all take a gargantuan beating in Bangalore. And never actually recover. Which means, by the time I go next, I need to be in a mental state where I am not consumed by guilt and inaction. So let’s see, it’s up to me to get that fixed up.

Right then. Back to the routine. First up, huge 159 slide decks to be prepped. Then going through 2k emails. Then casual teams messages informing everyone am back. Then non-work related things: finding a rental, advertising existing rental, chasing Irish house sale, selling my Range Rover, etc etc. lots to do. And then some expansionary things like finding a side hustle, starting writing projects, and the biggest one of them all: getting my diet, sleep, and lifting schedule back on track.

Whew. Exhausting. But such a ride innit. Can’t wait to get going. Laters!
