Yesterday I completed what Tony Robbins calls "The Hour of Power" basically you just pray or do affirmations for an hour while you work out. Success, habits, ways of thinking, being passionate being happy...these are all daily rituals that you need to set aside time for. Acknowledging that fact helps me feel better which helps me not hate work so much. I went to work and our computer systems were down. There was no answer to when they will be back up. At first I was grateful because our computer systems are pretty good. This is the second time they have been down. My boss tells people to do 3 batches then put these steal racks in the racks. He jokingly tells me to get in the scissor lift because he knows I get sick. I told him I am down to do that. Someone needs to put me to the top and take away the key and just make me figure out how to cope with being that high. Maybe if I eat comfort food while being up in the scissor lift it will go well. So right as I get going the other workers start drifting off course. I know the right thing is to tell them "Our boss gave us xyz instructions lets work on that" I have to give myself credit for nutting up like that. They said "Fine but you are going in the lift" I said I know I am down I need to figure it out anyway. I get up there and the racks were awkward until i figure out how to balance myself, twerk my body and shovel these racks in there. The height wasn't bad because I wasn't pressed to the ceiling I was even with the top rack. I saw some growth and progress with my scissor lift skills and coping ability. For that I am happy and grateful. I was LUCKY the systems were down so I could work on my scissor lift game. I wasn't properly trained on the technical part of the lift, but I think overall I did the right thing by doing what I was told. The system didn't come back up until late and I stayed late. It wasn't an awesome feeling, but I know if I want to progress and move up in the company I have to pay the price. I have to be a team player. I have to dig deep even when I am tired and find a will to win and a will to succeed. I did the best I could getting one piece list done and then I left. So the scissor lift growth was good. The growing in communicating to others that "our boss told us to do this, lets do it because it is the right thing to do" I had growth in nutting up in that area. I also nutting up and had growth by staying late and digging around in myself to find some strength through fatigue and a crappy physical state.
