Careless Mistakes
While you are usually on your A+ game lately you have been making careless mistakes, leaving your wax pot on, overbooking clients, forgetting client appointments, and showing up late for work. You have become an absolute scatter brain and can’t keep up with if you are coming or going. This is a definite sign of unmanageability and a firm indicator you need to slow down and take a break.
Tired…Sleepy Not Getting Rest
Lack of sleep will kick your ass. The days of pulling all-nighters and leaving the job extra late are not an option especially not 7 days a week. Working through your break time, eating on the go, and simply not taking care of yourself on the job is a recipe for both physical and mental disaster. The toll of working doubles and cramming clients and services to satisfy your wallet only adds to the stress remember peace of mind is PRICELESS and sooner or later the lack of taking care of yourself will catch up with you.
WHY SO SERIOUS?
Listen beauty bosses I know the hustle is real but you are only playing yourself if you don’t ever take a little vacation time (and I am not talking private jets to Tahiti either). Use planned vacation time to sit in your house and chill, watch misfit tv or hell roam aimlessly around the Misguided website and fill your cart with things you only daydream about wearing. The point is to take care of yourself. Vacation is a mandatory non-negotiable deal, remember “Work, Work, Work” is just a HOT ASS dance line from a Rihanna song don’t take it too much to heart.
“OH! THE DRUDGERY”
If work has suddenly become a jail for you it is definitely a sign of exhaustion or that you need to bail from the profession altogether. Please regroup and don’t be a drag. While lots of people got jokes about Kanye right now it looks like fame has taken a toll on this brother…. I am not going to get all into weather or not this man has a mental illness but I recognize and can relate to the pressure of working under a microscope. We are working with high flying clients all day, running a business, and putting our names and reputations on the lines each day (YELP is REAL)! If work and the pressure of having to be perfect is taking its toll on you please pause and take care of yourself if you have to take advantage of your companies Employee Assistance Program don’t be afraid to do so. Remember BAD ASS Beauty Bosses we are making a living caring for others so we gots to take care of ourselves.
Peace and Prayers Up for Kanye
XOXO
