I took a two week holiday break. Mid week through my first full week back, here are my thoughts.As the amount of refreshment increases due to break, a parallel amount of habit formation is lost. After two weeks, I’m re-learning how to “do” my week.After one week of break, I become eager to work on something meaningful. It doesn’t need to be “work”, it can be another form of work. I need to be constructive.After two weeks, I want to spend a bit more time making jalan jalan (Filipino slang for “hanging out”) with the team I lead versus the hard work.I’m struggling to re-integrate my habits.That’s my stream of consciousness. Now time to do something with it.Acknowledgment is the first step.Welcome back.
