This is a crucial point. Having a safe space in which you can talk and share with people who understand your role and situation is important. It is only natural we may want to offload. We cannot forget though, that complaining to colleagues may only help us feel better for a while, but will not necessarily instigate the required culture changes in the business if needed. It is the first step to help us feel better and decide what other actions we may undertake.

The balance for me is mood. Even when I am so ‘focused’ on the mission/vision/values. Goal oriented. Check! Detail oriented check! Balancing fine motor skills (fun & expensive) with mental stimuli? Back and forth battle including ethical dilemmas across all industries…but, back to subject. Find things that are fun for you/we/us…and the sweat equity will value your personal shine! Finding the best way is usually luxuries through customization! (Ha! Idk emijicoms)
