WotD: On your game
Although we would like it to be that way, not every day can be a good day.
There are good days, bad days, so-so days, and then there are fantastic ones when you are really on your game.
Those are the days you want to remember.
When you’re on your game, you are rockin’; I mean, you are smokin’ hot.
Nothing can stop you at all.
Everything falls into place; you are in the zone!
What I mean to say is when you are on your game, you are performing as well as you possibly can, and you can’t do any better.
Those are the days you want your bosses to remember when they fill out your evaluation form.
Unfortunately, we’re all human and cannot be on our game all the time.
You know what I’m getting at here.
We all have our bad days (often Mondays) when nothing seems to go right – you miss your train, it rains, and you haven’t got your umbrella, and, of course, as always happens on a bad day – your phone dies.
It’s on days like that you want to find that Murphy guy (Murphy’s Law) and give him a piece of your mind (and maybe a black eye or two.)
Then, later on in the week, there you are, smokin’ hot again; you’re on your game.
On Monday, you felt like you were falling apart, but now you have it together – emails are answered, documents are created, and you get out of the office on time.
Those are the days you want to remember: the days when you are on your game!
