I hope everyone is doing okay. We went into crisis mode and it’s changing me in every way. I’m going from one fire to another. I thought initially I couldn’t keep up that caused me to figure out a different way of working. I took charge and began to build tasks and steps each one requires. It’s like a checklist, but on the teams app. No one else has and plus I was hired to take on this particular project on my own. I’m getting to know others and taking notes, even people at high levels.
I want this storm to end, but I know it will be longer, but the fires have become more and feels infinite. It’s a reactive position at the moment to each fire that pops up. It’s small progress, but it’s progress. I have to be fierce working and being calm with my emotions, strategic at how and when I do certain things so that one thing I do doesn’t create more problems or for the other, slowly removing obstacles. I feel I’m earning a lot more battle stripes. I am like a broken record repeating the same story and trying to garner support to reach my goals. Things move so slow, and I have to be patient! There are no detours, it takes a village to complete one step, crazy! I don’t have much tenure at this organization and don’t know a lot of people, but I pray that I am able to meet my deadlines. It’s like I’m in a nightmare and I can’t give up. I hope the least I can gain is being a master at this if nothing else. Continuing to work hard…All the Best!
