DECOMPRESS

M. Hi. Need to decompress

C. Let’s hear it. What’s on your mind?

M. Didn’t get much sleep last night.

C. Why?

M. I stayed up late watching the ST program, which ended at 11. I then kept watching TV even though I had to get up at 430 in the morning.

C. Why?

M. My brain was still pretty active and I couldn’t fall asleep. I didn’t do a very good job of sleep hygiene, so I probably only got 2-3 hours sleep if that, so I’m beat.

C. Go on

M. I wanted to get more done today but I’m beat. So I’m pissed that I’m too tired to work. I didn’t get much sleep the two previous nights so my tiredness has accumulated.

C. Well you did manage yesterday to create the P-E presentation guide, which is great.

M. I’m happy with it, but I’m so fried right now that I just don’t have the strength or brain power to do high concentration work, so I’m frustrated about that.

C. Go on

M. I want to do a better job tonight in terms of sleep prep because I have to get up at 430am again.

C. What’s your game plan?

M. I’m going to watch the debate which ends at 8pm and then I’ll watch the analysis.

C. Okay. My advice is to have dinner around 530. Layout tomorrow’s stuff before the debate. Take a warm shower at 8pm then some broth. Take supplements at 9. Turn off TV. Do some reading.

M. What about P-E practice?

C. Review the content at 5pm.

M. What about the other stuff?

C. Push it out until tomorrow. Your priority tonight is sleep.

M. Okay

C. I know this is not your preference but given the circumstances use today to regroup. You've already practiced and you also got home organization stuff done. Plus, you planned out the rest of the week. Plus, my friend, don't forget the great work you did with the HL PB. LV and T love your work. And you're going to get paid for this.

M. Okay

C. I'd really focus on making today a recuperation day. Drink lots of water. Take your supplements. Get some fresh air. Do deep breathing and stretching.

M. Okay. What should I do this afternoon?

C. Have a salad for lunch. Drink water. Review the P-E presentation. Just read it a few times, nothing more than that.

M. Okay

C. Let's take a quick look at your work plan for the rest of the week

M. Okay

WEDNESDAY

M. That's helpful to see the week’s action items on one page.

C. You got this. Keep after it! Head held high! Second to none. Things are really picking up. I know the 430 am meetings are nuts. Just one more day.

M. Thanks

C. Was this helpful?

M. Definitely. Helped me put issues and action items in perspective. I have been working really hard, especially considering lack of sleep.

C. Get some rest and take care of yourself the rest of the day.

M. Thanks. Will do.
