The need for balance

It is becoming a more and more pressing issue that I have, to manage the expectations of the commitments I am willing to make for my work, especially in terms of the hours I put in.

It is bordering on absurdity at times when I begin to feel that the reports I spend so much time producing, are sometimes just to allow the people above me feel in control.

How sickening.

A fly on a window

I am feeling tired.

Now what happens is like a fly on a window; you repeatedly bang your way out, hoping that it will bring you to where you wanna be, but you know you are just a fly and never in your ability would you be able to break through the glass. But the light from outside is so nice and warm , you know you will be happy when you get outside, you see the purpose and the benefit it will bring you....

What would you do if you are working with all your heart and might, believing your efforts can and will lead to a better end result: to make something work... but you know that others are not similarly aligned. Then when you get sucked into the pointlessness of it all, your direct report in return won't allow you to slow down also. You want to perform, you believe in what you do, but deep down inside, you just want to stop and slow down and enjoy......
