#79 October 19: Contact lookup – 1 hour 45 minutes

It was going pretty good for a Monday. I managed to squeeze in an unusual weekday afternoon Chiefs victory, then went through more of the contacts at the various governing bodies for the U.S. Olympic team that we would use for Life After the Games. I was on a roll there for a little bit. Then I became extremely distracted by something. Not the other Monday night game, I did not see any of that. Instead, it was a personal matter. I tend to share a lot on here about my experience and I try to be very authentic in my approach. Sometimes I worry that I am a little too authentic and share things I should not. All of this is part of the process I am going through, however.

For a moment, I thought that maybe I have been trying to take on too much at one time between a mentorship, my full-time job, and the pandemic. The thing is that I have been able to balance work and school for a good three years, so I think it might be jitters over being so close to the end and thinking about what happens next. I know I should be thinking about the here and now and not trying to get too far ahead of myself but it is very difficult to do when you are seven weeks out from your MBA and working at getting those last hours in. Sorry that I could not be more upbeat tonight, I just had a lot to get off my chest there.
