Weary Part II

November 7th, 2009 at 04:17 am

Today I feel sapped of my energy. I just feel like all I can do is shrug my shoulders and have them become rounded. I was critiqued about something that only hours previously had made me feel so happy and accomplished. This person's words made me feel like no matter the qualities I offer and my skills, there is something within them that makes them not be able to see what I offer, or see me as someone who cannot improve or achieve higher. This has left me feeling a bit blue to say the least.

It is easy for me to take how I am feeling and divert from my budget. But I know I do not have that type of wriggle room.

My appetite has gone down a bit, so I am happy for that.

I am going to work on what I can improve, and hopefully I can improve the areas enough so that this person will not have the same wrong inner judgments of me. It does make me worry a lot more as I thought I was doing well. I feel like my only option is to improve as much as I can, even though it make me weary. At times like this, I feel like I don't have a whole lot of strength and energy.

    Don't let them get you down! Maybe once the initial feelings have worn down, you could approach them to see what their expectations were or are and focus on those areas more. All you can do is try your best! Maybe they were just having an off day today.

    Be careful - I don't know the context of the criticism, or whether it was a consensus or one person's opinion. If it was one person, that person might be a workplace bully.
