Working and Wandering

IMG_20150928_133315

I was in a cafe earlier this morning. I popped out today to work from a cafe. Working from home can be lonely sometimes so it is good to get out and be surrounded by people, while you still get the work done.
I am now 38 weeks pregnant, so some of my attention (unintentionally) goes to the mums that come to the cafe with their babies and toddlers.
I have the innocent idea that, when the baby comes and after a few weeks, I will be able to continue with my life – like if the baby is totally going to adapt to me and not much the other way around. But the more I see around me, the more I think that it won’t be the case.
All the mums around me right this morning, were totally focussed on their toddlers, none of them were working or reading a book or anything like that. Just totally focussed on making their little ones smile. And what can be better than that?

It is just that, sometimes, it is terrifying to think how things are going to change and if I will be able to do it.

The Manifesto

As I’ve decided to change my job I have started thinking about what I want to do next.

At the moment I am pretty senior in what I do, but I really REALLY don’t enjoy it.

So my first decision is: Shall I continue with my career but somewhere else? or shall I try and look for something I really want to do even if that means a step back on my career progression?

I am definitely considering the second option … so I’m looking for help on “making” that decision.

I came across the Holstee Manifesto

This Manifesto was created by Holstee, a Brooklyn based design/art studio that offers sustainable made cards and posters. They encourage people to live a mindful life.

And you need to watch their video, it is soo inspiring!

 

Happy Sunday Everyone!!
