Connecting the Dots
Welcome to "Connecting the Dots," a podcast where each episode is a journey through the weeks of our lives. Last year, I embarked on a personal project, "My Life in Weeks," documenting weekly milestones with a simple dot on a wall planner. This year, I'm diving deeper into the world of podcasting by connecting with intriguing people who also prioritise infusing their lives with positive experiences. Each week, I chat with a guest about their "week" or "dot," sharing stories, challenges, and triumphs. We explore how these moments shape our paths and discover the power of connecting the dots together. Join us to find inspiration in everyday lives and perhaps add more good things to your own life along the way.

Here's the problem with having COVID is, and which was like five, four or five weeks ago, is you're just tired. Just, it won't go away. And I wish it would because it's affecting my running and my creativity and just all that type of stuff. It just, I don't even, I don't know, I'm just taking a seat. I mean, even right down to this little passion project of mine, which is about reaching out to people I find interesting or intriguing and going, Hey, come sit. with me and, you know, have a chat and tell me, I want to ask some questions I would not normally ask people or I'd love to ask them more about what they do. And just the last few weeks is like, you know, I'm like, Oh, today I'm going to follow up or send out some messages. And I sort of do a couple and there's no, I don't do follow up and I'm just, I'm sure that's got to do with this just recovery of Covid. I'm just like, ah, I'll think about that tomorrow. It's like the, it's like the, you know, spreading disease of procrastination is what it feels like. Cause I'm even like, oh, maybe I've done like, what is this week 27 since I turned 49 and I wanted to do this passion project. And I'm like, oh, maybe that's over six months. Maybe that's enough for this year. You're like, and, and that shouldn't be how I'm thinking about it at all. I just, I am surprised at how much of a just energy zap, um, this recovery phase, uh, has been afterwards. Cause I was literally going to go to work today and sit down and go, all right, I'm going to send out, follow up who I sent out. Some ideas to last week and send out some new ones this week. And I just went, Oh, I'm at home. I drove home to check on dog and, and, uh, and I thought, Oh, just maybe that, maybe I just need a breather. I'm like, no, I'm going to record this going. This is why there is no person sitting in this chair this week is I just Well, I mean, you know, four or five weeks ago. I just, I hope that changes soon. Um, so this is a mini mini update of not connecting the dots and connecting the outcome of COVID to what's happening in my life. Anyhow, 28, 28 weeks since I turned 49. I really hope that, uh, I can just find my rhythm again soon and energy and, you know, and, and, you know, In a world where part of what I do is being creative and problem solving, it's, it's, it's not, that doesn't work well when you're just tired. I've never slept so much in my life, that's for sure. Anyhow, that's what's going on in my world. I hope to, uh, I hope to send out some messages soon. I feel, just, I don't know what that is, but it's procrastination, right? Just that lower level of energy, so you're just like, ah, that's, Tomorrow items problem. Anyhow, I got nothing. That's it. There's no any, anyhow. Anyhow, that's it. See you again soon. I hope to have someone here soon.
