Interesting theme for the day. I’m finding that i’m making all sorts of mistakes recently..from spelling, to filing, to email faux pas … they’re all small, they’re all unintentional “honest” mistakes. Before you worry.. I am pretty sure that I’m not slipping mentally.. If anything, found that when I stopped commuting 6 timezones every other week my memory, focus and overall brain health seems to have gone up…. (try me in scrabble 🙂
so.. what’s going on ? I’m not sure if I’m actually making more mistakes.. or I’m just noticing them more.. One factor is my new line of work.. . I’m used to knowing what I’m doing more.. now I’m in a new field, new people, new location, ven after 5 months, I still don’t know all the people in my new network, I don’t yet know the policies or practices.. or for that matter the personalities.
The funny thing is.. the only person who gets made at me for these goofs is me ! I think the answers here are pretty clear.. a) spend a little more time checking and rechecking my work.. and b) forgive myself more when it happens.
easier said than done on both counts.
nite all, nite sam
