Help I think I’m in one!
So I’ve been reading this book by Seth Godin ” The Dip” and just noticed how my motivation has gone from high to low. The week didn’t start out as good as I wanted it. So you’ll probably have never heard me speak in this manner but I’ am experiencing my “DIP”.
The DIP -
usually what happens after you made a big decision about something you’ve decided to do and you hit your first crisis or a number of them.
Please take a look at some examples of dip that could happen to you.
What did my DIP consist of
-
A really lousy weekend low motivation to do any work
-
Mon- though I had a plan, I didn’t stick to it
-
Didn’t put a blog post
-
I focussed way too much on other people’s projects than my own- I know I told myself I would help other people in order to build my skills and learn something in return but I gave too much.
-
Tues- Spent almost two hours arguing with Talk- Talk about huge phone charges. Missed my 2pm appointment with the food bank . Still, no time to blog, write or make calls
-
The bank charges me for late fee
-
Wed- focused on other people’s project’s once more. Attending a fundraising meeting for a charity I support.
-
1 hour 30 min arguing with the bank about late charges
-
Stay calm, it can only get better
-
Where are your priorities Mathy!!!
-
My Klout is going down
-
Thur- the job centre made my day. Losing all my paper work, delaying payments and making me miss an interview. I will kill them!!!!
-
I still haven’t changed my theme , blogged………….
-
My hair is drying , I feel like I am pulling it out slowly
