Challenges of Another Kind

Over a span of a year, my last job turned me into a lazy, procrastinating mush - I wasn't as busy, site visits were widespread, I wasn't traveling as hectic-ly as I was before, working from home, not dealing with a daily commute, working in sweats and pjs, no make-up. I was resting, having a life, having to manage a lot of time on my own, left to my own devices. But, this new job is going to escalate to a demanding schedule, and I am like a pinto running on diesel and water. Just chug chug chugging along, not really into it, not trying to find a groove at all because all I want to do is do nothing.

I used to be quite driven, organized, on top of it all, but I've let that all fall by the wayside and frankly, I don't mind sometimes because I'm content. But there are pressures looming - this job, my new boss, my colleagues are going to mind if I don't get my act together soon - and I know this just isn't me deep down. That same driven woman is somewhere in there, not pushed down, but sort of deflected off, on vacation, on snooze. So, how do I get out of this iJoy vacation of the mind, body and soul and onto a more productive me? My mission is to figure out what the first step is. Until then, my iJoy will do just fine.
