Touched down into KL from Melbourne this week... I am so glad to run away from Winter Wonderland that just started. Don't get me wrong, I love the colder weather but I don't miss the Wet Winter days, which makes it double chilly.
When I hit my home, I realized something was amiss. I checked around and found out that my helper did not come in to clean, which meant that I had to clean the whole apartment and wash my bed linens, after the long 3+ weeks away. (Strike ONE)
And just as I thought things would get better, I found out that my Fridge DIED on me. OMG!!!* This meant even more cleaning and throwing away EVERYTHING in my fridge! (Strike TWO)
By now I was totally exhausted, having just come back to KL on a Red-Eye flight and doing all the cleaning up. After a few hours of bringing my home back to its manageable order, I had to quickly run off to do a few errands and also meet up with a Potential Client. Back to the Rushed-Life here in KL.
By evening, I was already feeling a little under the weather and then BAAAMMM, I was unwell the next morning! From a throat irritation, it turned to a dry cough and I almost LOST MY VOICE. (Strike THREE)
To make things worst, I was already scheduled to run 3-Full Days of Coaching & Leadership training with one of the major Banks in the Region. Have you ever had a Bad Turn of events? One thing leading to the next. Then it hits you like a tom of bricks and you are left wondering "Why Me"?
I could have just sat and moped at the circumstances that came my way. But instead of that, I decided to prop myself up by doing the necessary to GET MY VOICE & HEALTH BACK!
So I started with...
- Eating soothing Manuka Honey
- Gargling with Salt Water
- Avoiding all Fried or Spicy Food
- Sleeping Early (and yet not early enough)
- Drinking Warm Water
- Avoiding all forms of Caffeine drinks
- Getting an Air Filter (thanks to my friend)
- Breathing through my Nose
- Keeping Quiet when I can (which is hard due to my 3-Days of Training)
Don't have a number 10. :)
Glad I learned a few lessons this crazy week!!
- Life will always come with challenges, we will have to just roll with it.
- Life will never be certain, we need to be ready to respond with positivity.
- Life will always brings a new experience, we need to be ready to capture the learnings.
- Life will never be dull and boring, as long as you can smile at your situation and press on.
- Life will always try to knock you out completely, we just need to be quick to pivot to a new level.
I hope the Weekend is Great!... for you and for me.
