GM folks.
3 days of war room efforts handling outage recovery, likely extending into the weekend... I'm still on it. Managed to squeeze in a couple of interviews and deal with urgent family matters (across countries and continents) in between.
10 years ago, I would have been stressed like there was no tomorrow, barely sleeping the few hours I had, worrying about everything. Not today. I think I'm finally beginning to mature. I'm not trying to control things outside of my reach, or stressing out about imaginary scenarios.
It took me almost 40 years, but I’m finally grasping how to play the game of life. There's a Brazilian saying: "A vida a gente tem que saber levar."
Old folks love this one. It's hard to translate directly into English, because its wisdom and simplicity carry a lot of unspoken meaning. But at its core, it conveys the idea that we need to know how to navigate life and roll with the punches.
If you're going through difficult times right now, know that things eventually fall into place. Live your best life today, regardless of external circumstances. Take care of yourself and your family. Do your best and ignore the noise.
