PP: So, I hope that you’re not discouraged for long, or that you took this away for times when you are, and I wish you all the best. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.īut do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Gracefully nurturing and surrendering the things of youth. I also like to keep a copy of a poem called Desiderata, and I like these two stanzas and I’ll wrap it up with these two stanzas and wish you all the best working through your frustrations and coming out the other side in a better place, so from Desiderata, the first stanza is:Īnd remember what peace there may be in silence. Find a thing that centers you and try to work through the frustration and see past it. Usually I write a little Ruby program or I can go to practice Taekwondo something physical. PP: Me personally I always come back to tinkering with code. Try to appreciate what you have, and be realistic, but take time to do something that makes you happy. Is it temporal? Will it pass? Is there something you can do to change your perspective and take charge of the situation and just find a path through? It’s not always possible, and sometimes good people are just put in discouraging situations. So can you rationalize that? Where is it coming from? That’s a really hard thing to figure out sometimes. If you can imagine being one of your co-workers or being in the head of someone that you respect and how you might imagine they see your situation and it might be very possible that people around you think that you’re in a terrific situation and you’re very lucky, very fortunate and maybe you’re the one that struggling with discomfort or disappointment in it. PP: Also, try to look at your situation from another point of view. So, what I remember is, having done yoga a few times in the past, I remember an instructor that used to say it’s okay to sit through the discomfort, or breathe through the discomfort, because frustrations or discomfort is usually temporal and it’s important to really understand where you are and if the thing that is frustrating you might be temporal, or you might have a bound around it, or a box around it. 
Maybe that’s common sense, but you’d be surprised, if your action-oriented how much you might feel like you need to do something. PP: When I get discouraged I do a few things, one is: don’t make any hasty decisions. Maybe you’re just tired and that could be amplifying some of the smaller things have been bugging you but you’ve been through. It can be a collection of things or a collection of related things. PP: Sometimes it’s hard to pinpoint exactly what’s bugging you. I don’t know where things are going, or even in my career, what’s next. I mean I’ve been in this industry for a long time now, and even as a distinguished engineer, I get discouraged. PP: I’d like to check with you all today on: what do you do when you’re discouraged?
