Next week…
I realized that ever since I started my EMBA I’ve been saying things like: “Oh, after I get finish class this week I’ll have a much better time of it next week.” or “Wow, I’ll really be able to get all my school work AND ride my bike next week”. Of course, when next week arrives I’m still struggling to balance work, school and life.
Everyone told me that participating in a program like this was going to be a lot of work. Good friends, advisors, alumni and faculty all told me it would be challenging and that it would probably take some time to settle into a rhythm.
I think after a month of talking about “next week”, I’ll just focus on this week. An interesting by-product of being so immersed in school is that I more thoroughly enjoy my time outside of work and away from homework. Because they are a little less frequent, those moments where I get to cook dinner, watch a ‘cross race or have coffee with a friend are just a little more special.
