Busy day for me today – which I both loath and love. Sometimes my profession, and probably most people’s, is a love hate thing. As my clients know I work INSANE hours. If you look at the hours posted on this site you will see part of the insanity. What I don’t reveal to most is that I take clients before and after my official hours. I don’t like doing it, but I love my clients and love the work so I will do whatever I can to fit a good client in. This often means a 6am-9pm day…like today.
While I give a good facial I am immersed in what I do. I forget the time and just ride the ebb and flow of the energy. I trust my instinct and have faith that the energy will keep me on track. So far its served me well. Of course, I have off days. Days where the energy and I can’t seem to sync up. Days when I just pray that no one notices the extra effort I’m exerting to make up for the disconnection I am experiencing. Thank goodness that those days are few and far between. Even on an insane 8 facial and 4 wax day like today I end at home tired but happy.
Today I was on. Today the energy was flowing and I was changing my client’s lives. I made them feel wonderful and look better and that does the same for me. So today I loved my job even though I came home to see the sad look my boyfriend tried to hide. He doesn’t see me enough. My back is aching and tomorrow is going to be one hell of a long day. I think of it now with loathing, buy if I’m lucky the energy will allow me to come home with a smile on my face. It just takes the right frame of mind. Oh and the right clients always help!
I may not be a doctor or lawyer, but this Skin Fitness Expert has to admit she is one hell of a workaholic. I loath it and I love it.
