My inspiration card over the last week:
So, how did I do?
Candidly, I did not do great. My very first opportunity to put this into play and I failed. I was on a work conference call and something came up that absolutely was not directed at me, not about me, and not because of me... and I promptly took it personally, anyway. Even worse than feeling that way was the fact that I decided to give voice to those feelings and took a well-crafted (albeit impulsive) shot at someone who was no doubt already having a shitty enough day. My "Mr Positive" reputation definitely took a hit over it.
So, no, I do not get to consider this one a win. Despite staring at this card on my desk all week, I still managed to do exactly the opposite of what it suggests. I'll be thinking about this one for some time in hopes of taking it a bit more to heart.
And a sneak peek at next week's card:
