Let me be great

Today I spent my post 9to5 wprking hours indoors. I Had a mission to come back to my apartment and jump on some code. Reason being is that i have a change to do and I wanted to get a grip of the system before going in to the office tommorow blank-  cause that just leads to time wastage..

My strong will to tackle the problem and delve into the SQL files and c# files head on is something that I was inspired to do by my work mate. Thing is....I know ( the world knows) that I've always been proactive, hands-on and eager to get the job done - at least I was throughout high-school and varsity- but recently, after being exposed to so much and being over whelmed with so many new things here at work,  new paradigms, new methodologies and new and unfamiliar programming languages I have honestly forgotten just how intelligent, solution-oriented, and pragmatic I actually truly am.

So today when I finally got the code to work I had so much joy not just because I accomplished something but also because I feel like I'm being me again. ...

These are the attributes that got me to where I am today.
1. Goal oriented.
2. Solution driven.
3  Hard working.
4. Don't give up easily (if at all even).
5. Quick learner. .

And these are qualities that I have noticed in my work mate so much, and I'm glad that instead of seeing it as competition or being negative about it, I took it in positively and I tried my best to learn from him and replicate him in areas where possible.  And I am glad that it had paid off as I am also progressing in my professional career because of this... its beautiful and I'm glad I have someone like him that I can measure myself against.  You can only get better if you surround yourself with people that push you forwards and raise higher, either implicitly or explicitly. It's a challenge that results in continuous growth and learning. ...If handled correctly. 


Remember that It's ok to lose your groove once in a while, just make sure you get it back....
