Superwoman on a multivitamin high

... these days I am so used to crisis management that routine work makes my fingers prickly and palms sweat :). Miss cranky pants has been huffing and puffing about her never ending stream of work .. the ocean of incomplete jobs ... and offcourse the scarce efficient staff.

After some quiet reflection ... the problem is not the amount of work or the staff ..it is ineffective time management. There are all but 24 hrs in a day and 7 days in a week. It is a foolish endeavour to try to do everything, to think everything can be done. Setting up impossible deadlines ... the pressure and the slogging to get the work done .... ( hmmmm I feel I am back in my IT job:)

Now with all the inspections over... I hope I will be able to flex my fingers and dive back right into the steady work stream ...but try to swim at my pace and not fight the flow ... and remember that there is the option to take a break and sit on the bank :)
