Clueless...

I am just a typical not-so-young professional who is struggling so hard to get her work done correctly and timely.
Reality bites, sometimes our deeds are misunderstood... Sometimes also our efforts are just simply ignored.
No matter how hard we try to keep up the good work, we do sometimes fail... we do sometimes missed the main significant points. Doing multifarious tasks can be tedious, stressful and may cause a lot of pressures. An armful load of assignments is so difficult to cope up especially if all are on the "priority list". Like what others said, we just cannot serve two masters at the same time, how much more with three or more? But somehow, if we are used to it, it became so normal that we don't recognize those negative feelings anymore. Too good to be true?
Honestly, I can do a lot of things if I am in a very calm situation. Meaning, if things around me are okay, everything will be okay. And if I am okay, no matter how loaded my hands would be with works, it really doesn't matter because I am at peace and my heart is right. I know this has something to do with my attitude. In work, I should be insensitive sometimes. I should not let bad situations overwhelm me that could really affects my work. But I just can't help it. 
I know we cannot pleased everyone- that's a FACT. But if the one we want to pleased with is not returning the favor, woooh what a disaster it would be!
I am now hanging in a balance... uncertain of the outcome. I do not know what lies ahead of me.
Well, God knows better how I felt right now. Whatever may happen, it should be in accordance to His will, whether in favor or against me. I JUST DO NOT KNOW.
Clueless.

ANTIDOTE TO STRESSBUSTERS 2


Part 2

Here's the continuation of the Antidote to Stressbusters...

A prescription for pressured people -- God's way to RELAX.
1. R -- Realize my worth
2. E -- Enjoy what I already have
3. L -- Limit my labor
4. A -- Adjust my values
5. X -- eXchange my pressure for God's peace

Wonderful isn't it? We should not forget that God created us for his glory...
We really don't need to drain ourselves to prove our worth as an individual...
Yes it is true that we need to utilize our God-given potential to its maximum but not to the point of putting our lives, relationship, etc. to risk. How come it becomes risky? If we burn out ourselves, our health, quality time with our love ones and our relationship with God will be at stake... If we are too preoccupied, our focus will be on finishing and winning our individual tasks... Remember, we cannot serve two masters AT THE SAME TIME...We can't claim that we love our families if we don't even spend quality time with them... I'm not saying that we should be too relax and neglect our obligation as worker, what I'm trying to imply is that we should learn how to balance things... Enjoy our work but never disregard our time with our family, friends and most specially our personal time with God.
