Nervous Energy
The day of rest yesterday did me a lot of good, and I am looking forward to jumping in on this new project with all my energy. I expected some nerves getting started on this, and as expected, the nerves are there in full force. The exhilaration is palpable, and I am enjoying it, I am not going to lie. It comes and goes in waves and I am still hours away from the beginning of this journey I signed up for. I am happy.
I am a bit worried that there will be an overload of all that energy, and it might backfire in the end. It has happened before. I have been riding a series of good days, but I’m never that lucky. I know something on the horizon will come and trip me up. That is the way life is. The best I can do is trust. I have to trust in my strengths, like my thirst for learning, my intellect, and my determination to make this work. I also must trust in my preparation for this, and the time I took to relax and rest. That is what I will do… and I’ll try to remember to breathe.
