Some days feel like running internal marathons

Well, despite continuing to complete tasks late into the evening, I was up with the alarm at 5:45.
Yesterday I travelled over to Suffolk and got back late in the afternoon. A deadline was still looming on another matter, so I made a coffee and continued on.
At times, it feels like an internal marathon; just keep going and look for signs that progress is being made.
As I was driving yesterday, the alert beeped to indicate there had been a loss of tyre pressure. Previously, this had sent me into a panic, thinking a puncture had occurred. It has happened enough to know it is usually after tyres have been changed or the like. So, despite my brain wanting to continue on, I pulled in at a garage, checked them, and then reset them. Another example of how, if fear is activated, I would think negatively.
I am reminded of the words of Marie Curie,
Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less.

Another tough day, yet I was aware of many positives in it. The guy with whom I did a deal finally met his side. I was elated. Another person whom I met for the first time brought a lot of positivity with him. All of the people I saw today brought life with them, uplifting life.
So often I am cutting deals with people, not knowing whether they will keep them. I am always amazed when they do; something had power!
Sleep well.
