#WorkplaceWednesday

Our #WorkplaceWednesday topic is competition. I'm not a competitor by nature and when I feel forced into a competition I get pretty grumpy and resentful. I recognize that competition can be good and healthy but it so rarely turns out that way.

So I'm thinking about competition today. And because I'm not a fan nor am I great at it I'm looking to others who might know what they are talking about. *grin*

I really like what Mary-Frances Winters says about competition:

For my personality type, and preferences, that kind of "competition" is the best kind. I can get behind that. What about you? How are you when it comes to competition?

The End of Affirmation 365

I've been thinking about it for over a month. Usually, when I'm in it I'm engaged. But this time? I started it indifferent and I've felt indifferent all along. I should have never started. Hindsight is 20/20 they say and they aren't wrong. So when I opened my eyes this morning it was clear. It's time. Time to quit this 365. This is the first 365 that I haven't posted several of the days, the first 365 that I wasn't super excited about, the first 365 that I've quit. I've changed my social media presence and interactions the past year so this is also the first 365 that hardly anyone has been interested in. Is it the topic or my decision to not be as accessible on social media? Or is it some other reason altogether? Well, regardless...I'm throwing in the towel on this one. I can't say if I'll ever do another 365 again. Time will tell and I will know if and when it's time.
