Making different choices
I want to talk about making the choice to do something differently.
This reflection started during recovery from surgery, and it seems relevant given we’re going into the new year.
I’m used to managing my time and energy and listening to my body. It’s a skill I’ve had practice on, knowing when I can push (or when I need to push), and when to step back. Sometimes pain needs rest, sometimes it needs distraction, and I’m pretty good at knowing which is which.
I’m used to capitalising on energy, using it to catch up or get ahead, so when I need to rest, I can do so without too much stress.
