My dear readers and followers, on the last post I told you a little bit about myself and some of my daily battles at the call center. But also working at a call center has helped me a lot in working on my own abilities and habits, one of those habits was to wake up early, since at the call center at 07:00 am we need to be already-ready to be taking calls for sure I needed to wake up at least at 5:30 am to get everything done and ready to be at the phone at 7:00 am. The call center gave me the structure to my daily routine that I was missing because I consider myself a creative person and I have always had a really hard time organizing my time and getting things done. So… after almost 7-8 months at these call center, I almost have a defined routine, though sometimes when waking up that early I feel so tired during the day.
At the call center my resting days are not as the normal people usually have, because I really have a long day routine starting at 7:00 am and finishing at 18:00 or later, so there are more than 8 hours journey a day a little bit tiring at the end of the day, and my rest days are Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday, feels like a really more long weekend because I rest 3 days, but… the rest of the week you feel that the day will not last that long to finish everything you need to do… make your food and meals, do all housekeeping, having everything at home perfectly good, hahaha….
Since my life as you have been reading in the last posts is always in a rush, in a constantly change looking for better job opportunities and I am always that type of person who gets really bored about doing the same routine every day, I am always that persons who love learning new things all the time, new stuff to do and work to get done, I need to confess that I have just started a new job in which now I am taking care of online exams (proctoring) for online certifications, so… I am still in the customer service area, but my routine has come a little more relax again. BUT…. I really need to tell, that considering that I am really bad at managing my time… what I miss from working at the call center is that great structure and defined strict times I used to have because helped me a lot with the managing of times… I am really missing that and now I do have a hard time trying to keep the “waking early routine” I used to have.
I am constantly trying to adapt myself to new changes and new routines, but sometimes I am struggling to get back to that path because also I realized that my body is feeling really tired about all the stress I used to manage at the call center, the few hours of sleep I used to have somedays… so now just trying to get again a new routine and try to keep up with all the good habits the call center taught me on the last months…
Of course, I still have my own projects in which I am working on the few free hours I have, and since my major was in business administration, but I love social media and digital marketing, you can now imagine I also need to spend some of my time learning these new whole bunch of information and studying these new role job opportunities for my own businesses.
Here I leave you an interesting article on how to wake up early that liked me a lot because they explain the step by step routine to achieve it. You know I always consider life as a roller coaster, and business is always about innovating, changing, adapting, or dying for it, but never surrender no matter what, surrender has never been an option.
