Oblique Strategy: You don’t have to be ashamed of using your own ideas
Every year, going into the holidays, I am stressed at work and looking forward to getting away, doing some of my own stuff, and getting everything teed up for next year.
But the hits just keep on coming. Everybody is in a hurry, they want their problems solved, and they seem to think I’m the only one to solve them. I’m sure everybody feels this way.
On another note – I have become re-fascinated by this wonderful piece of music. I keep listening to it over and over. It’s a shame it was used as a cigarette commercial jingle for so many years, and that’s how so many remember it.
Wow. Elmer Bernstein wrote music for 200 films.
Everything from The Ten Commandments, to Robot Monster, to Animal House
That music from that movie always makes me feel so good! 🙂
The mosaic is beautiful! 🙂
I hope the next few weeks go smoothly at your work. It sounds like your job is more stressful than Santa Claus’ job this time of year. Yikes! 😮
HUGS!!! 🙂
Thanks, hopefully the worst is over.
Love the Godfather clip! And that’s an interesting quote about work-life balance. When I do something that is meaningful to me, I tend to get out of balance.
I wrote a short story (425 words) called “The Need for Work-Life Balance.” If you would like to read it, I am open to any feedback: https://christopherjohnlindsay.wordpress.com/2017/12/10/work-life-balance/
Thanks, I’ll take a look at your story.
