2 days of work down...2 to go until the weekend.
I have very mixed feelings...although I obviously feel better for actually working, I am still a nervous wreck at certain times in the day. At these times I do try to rationalise my thoughts, keep telling myself that I have only been at my Dad's business for 2 days and not to expect 'great things'. The reality is that I have gone from 8 years working in an office environment to labouring on a timber yard - its quite a culture shock in more ways than one!
I have made a number of mistakes and I know I shouldn't give myself a hard time about it...but I do. This mind set has nothing to do with my current mental state - I always get frustrated when I make mistakes/don't understand things straight away - this frustration is just intensified to a point where I want to run off...
When I'm at my worst it helps me to take a break from what I am doing; go for a walk or simply take some deep breaths. It's common sense really...a characteristic that I find myself somewhat lacking in at the moment.
