mid-week check! 🤍
happy wednesday! 🐪 let me know what’s been going on so far this week! how you’re feeling, what you’ve accomplished, what’d you like to accomplish before the end of the week, or just vent!
i’ll go first: i’m feeling slightly overwhelmed at work. me and my manager have a pretty good cadence but i have only been at my job for 8.5 months so i feel like i need to prove myself and take on more and more to show my value as an employee which i know isn’t healthy. but in today’s where the job market is d i g u s t i n g. i need this more than ever. i would like to bring this up but im nervous how it will be received and what solutions may be offered. any advice?
Mid-week reflections are a great opportunity to pause and assess how you’re feeling about your week, both personally and professionally. As many of us know, work can often be stressful, especially in the current job market. If you’re feeling overwhelmed or pressured to prove your worth, consider discussing your feelings with a trusted colleague or manager. Transparency can foster understanding and lead to constructive solutions. Taking a moment to vent can also be therapeutic. Don’t hesitate to share your accomplishments, as celebrating small victories can boost your morale. Engage in self-care practices; perhaps take short breaks during your workday to refocus. Remember, it’s entirely normal to feel a mix of emotions throughout the week. Creating a supportive community where we can express our thoughts openly—like using hashtags such as #nonichejustvibes or #checkingin—can make a significant difference in how we handle our weekly challenges.
