So, I’ve been MIA a few days. This is because my computer exploded. As in, literally. I was working away and it went SNAP! and blew a fuse in my office. This happened to you? I’m sure it has. But how did you handle it?
My computer is now dead. Apple (bless them) are replacing it and are currently trying to retrieve data…including my book. Personal update: I’m staying calm. And using the opportunity to have a good hard look at myself.
Truth be known, the ordeal has tested me. I’ve been in a state of panic and frustrated beyond what I thought I could endure – unable to do ANY work during an insanely busy time for me. I’m about to start filming a new show, my book deadline’s getting closer, I have exams…and the rest.
But the intensity has honed my thinking. It’s forced me to look for the lessons.
When you ask, honestly and with enough open, raw desperation, “Why has this happened?”, you get your answer.
