Half adrift
Medicine has made me whoozy and I'm slipping in and out of things. Did this stuff really happen? Tempted to hit the pool tomorrow but that'll depend on schedule. Too many things held up, some things have hit the green light, but I definitely need more for sustenance. I admire an ex-colleague who's finally getting his bearings after a horrible startup phase. You definitely need that determination to pull yourself through, and there'll be dark days when you wonder whether what you're doing is the right thing. But I said six months didn't I? And technically not even one has passed. I think I've been spending too much time finding a way to stay afloat rather than constructing something new, but I tell myself I'm laying the groundwork. The raft needs to be stronger before I can cast it out. Right now, it'll definitely break down and fall to pieces. Even I need to be stronger and more resolute. I need that jolt of confidence again and I need to believe in myself and what I'm doing. I can tell you, it's not easy. PK is right. Little victories. I need those REAL bad.
