I DO NOT HAVE PERFECT DAYS

My friend is interested in knowing what my day often looks like. I can tell you for a fact that it’s not always rosy, because there are days I wake up paranoid and upset without knowing why, and there are days I wake up excited and pumped for the rest of the day. What I have learned though is to take all of the rollercoaster of my daily life and make something meaningful out of it.

The only meaningful thing going on in my life right now apart from my love life would be Hive. Hive gives me the space to pour out my heart and at the same prepare for the world out there.

So a daily life for me would look like this, I wake up by 2 am, read a chapter of any of the books I am having for the week or month, find a message/lesson in there, and turn it into a financial post, publish it on my @iskafan account, and share on threads. Then, I will move around looking for what to read and probably leave a comment or two. All this will take till 5 am.

On a good day, I will return to sleep and wake up by 8, on a bad day, I will struggle to sleep and stay awake, swiping my phone left, right, and center until I can finally fall asleep.

When I had my offline job, it was always like this, once I am done writing and publishing, it is often time to prepare for work. And during the first few days, I would not dare wake up by 2 am because my entire day would be disastrous. Not having enough sleep makes me prone to anger so I try to get as much sleep as possible.

That wasn’t really working out because I return from work late, get dinner, snooze to sleep, woke up abruptly, and check time to realize I am close to being late. So I would hurry over my book chapter, hurry over my writing and publish it, without leaving any comment behind because I will be hitting the bathroom as soon as my post shows green indicating that it has been published.

Those days, I usually wake up around 5 am, 6 am, or 7 am, yes, I am almost that late. At some point, I started to adjust and made sure I did not go to bed late, so I will still be able to wake up as usual by 2 am.

This worked, I got to run my reading and do my post and comments but I do not waste time, I returned to bed immediately after. Then I will wake up by 7 am, hit the bathroom, and hurry through the door for work.

Thank goodness, those days are over, because these days, I sleep early, wake up early, and get things done at the right time. Unless those days I will sit back and see a movie.

As it stands, I still haven't started working on my part as one of the LeoGlossary team, I am way behind, but I just need this break to recover from all of that work stress and euphoria, and I'll tackle my tasks head-on.

Rewinding to my friend's question, a typical day in my life is dependent on the task I have at hand, I do not have a fixed routine, if I did I would be terribly bored. So I wake up with a plan that involves writing because it is the most important task of the day and then any other thing that follows will be incorporated in due courses.

I do not know if this means perfect or imperfect days, what I do with the rest of the hours of my day after I left my job had been to read as many volumes of my books as possible. It is almost as though I am trying to make up for lost time and eating a lot.

I am serious, my job taught me that I had been too hard on myself when it came to food, my sister called the other day and asked if I was still starving because I am so high on the “I am watching weight” syndrome that I dread eating too much, especially if it is going to increase my calories intake for the day. So, in the last 26 days, I had a flexible meal plan and at the same time sustained and not over my budget. Well, I am already feeling as though I am on top of the world.

This morning I reminded myself that after this month, this holiday will be over and that it will be time to get serious with all of the activities that need to be done on Hive. My friends might have noticed I am going already starting because I visited a few of them last night on their posts as I warm up for May, I will be awakened to take my Hive seriously, expect me, soon.
