Last week we were discussing the start of another fast project with impossible timelines. I nodded ever so enthusiastically, then returned to my desk and booked away a string of long overdue holidays. First stop Italy, then beautiful Paris. And i'm not even going to feel guilty about it. If GEJ burns the economy to the ground, the hustle will still continue another day for those who survive the #petrocalypse.
Growing up, our folks used to say 'ise o kin pa yan?' I.e Hard work ain't never killed nobody. That 'ish don't apply anymore. Stress, high blood pressure, heart attacks....are no respecter of age anymore. Work hard, be on top of your game, yes please, but take time to breathe, in however capacity you can manage to. Light is sweet and it pleases the eyes to see the sun.
Haha!!! Loved that you booked your trip right after the meeting! Nothing says 'mi o le waku' more than that! And where is Note 3? :) Bon voyage!
ReplyDeleteAyodeji release your blog i.d now or else!!!!
DeleteGood spot on note 3! Lol. Thanks jare. Not joking about the blog.
Haha :) The blog is empty, I promise... I had opened a Twitter account for my ramblings but I don't use it for that purpose. I promise I don't talk a lot.

Holidays are always a good way to not only relax, but also to reflect on things. Hope you achieve both!
