Day Thirty-seven

Life is circular. Every time I try to run away from my problems, I end up right back where I started.  There is no escaping them. I can either learn from my mistakes and spiral upward, or, I can get caught up in a flurry of frustration and obstinate determination and get sucked into a downward spiral. 


Lately, I’ve been horribly sick. I caught a flu virus just as I was transitioning from working two part-time jobs while going to school to only working one job full-time. The resulting panic I felt from not getting enough hours and not being able to do a good enough job due to my illness made me even more sick. The worse I felt physically, the more anxious I became. The more anxious I became, the worse I felt physically. Giving myself permission to fail at work was the only way to pull out of this vicious cycle. Now, I finally have hope for improvement.
