Sharpening The Saw
I was counseled to learn how to “sharpen my saw”. This is a concept from the 7 habits… as it was explained-we are constantly sawing but never stop to sharpen the saw-to relax and rejuvenate. I realized that I judge that. Stopping. Resting. Doing something fun. It must be useful, or educational or else I must be sick to stop. Other than eating-I feel like my tool kit for relaxing is empty. Tonight-I consciously did not eat-but was so wound up-I did not know how to relax.
I had a few drinks. Two. And watched a movie. It is midnight and I’m still up. Relaxing is not my strength. I did not work tonight and did something I enjoyed-I look forward to honing the skill of sharpening my saw. I want to enjoy life-just not sure how!
