I’m ready to call it a night. It has been a long week and I’m ready to have the three day weekend.
I had an embarrassing moment today. My boss asked how the job was going and I reported that it was going well BUT….and that’s when it happened. The BUT. In that moment, I turned red and started to make excuses for what I believe are short-comings in my performance. She caught my flushed face and we all laughed about it but I’ll tell you the truth, it really bugged me. Not because she asked about my level of performance or that I became red-faced. It bugged me because I want to excel. I want to do my best. I want to be the best. When I feel that I’m just shy of that level, I get rosy.
I’ll work past it but in the mean time, I wish I had kept my cool.
