I'm feeling down....but will get over it

I'm being furloughed. This was back in Apr (looks like a past life)

Am I going to lose my job? Will the company survive (sports industry)? I'm so worried.

...some days had passed.....

Well, it's not too terrible. I'll have more family time. All of the sudden, I was rewarded with 8 hours of free time.

Well, I can't stay still. I'm going to browse IH everyday. Such nice community. People helping each other. So many needing help. Well, I've seen some of those problems before. I've learned so much from my previous experiences.

I felt the urge to share.

Action begins

I started my newsletter in May, writing about pre-internet companies. Pivoted. Took the courage to tell a story about my life. Fantastic reaction from IHers.

Founders were so thankful. That made my day. My month. Probably my year?

I love this community.

This moment! What a fantastic feeling of helping people with stories

Beginning of this month...

Sense of relief. I'm back to work. We have a lot of new projects there.

At the same time, I'm missing hanging out here and on Twitter so much.

I'm not having good sleeping time. In average, 5 hours/night due to my son waking up during the night. I'm certain that the change on our lifestyle affected his sleeping patterns (which is normally not that good).

This week I'm feeling down. Lack of sleeping + lack of time to do my newsletter and my Twitter hit me hard.

Well, in a positive note, I started working on an info-product. Will share more details later on.

Sorry if I'm being a bit pessimistic. I'll quickly get over it!

    It's normall to experience this. Everyone does even successful people. The important thing is to overcome it.
