By the time I hit Thursday evenings - I am wiped out. I have given all of my energy in the first part of the week and have very little left to deal with the self criticism that I dole out freely.
I had a series of nightmares last night that made me realize that I when I don't take care of myself - that I can be seriously hard on myself. I remember being in a car with two of my classmates and a random person from high school who basically let me know that my presentation style and personality were not okay and then I ran into another friend who reminded me to left my softer side show. Another part of the dream had me TA'ing a class on hospice care and some of the students openly disliked me. All of this let me know that I had let the two things of which I am most proud - my interest in education about hospice and my teaching abilities - become vulnerable.
So today - I reflected on how to take better care of myself while also trying to boost my self confidence about myself. I will find the happy medium.
