Monday Medicals
Today i tell my story
Before I start, you need to know that i am 100% fine, i have learnt my lesson, i have re-strategized and i am moving on. I also know that my family especially my big brother Tobe Anoliefo will give me a good sounding and believe me i deserve it and i am ready for it??
OK, so i messed up on Saturday.
Through out last week, i had a night program that i signed up for and due to timezone differences, i have to be up by 1 am till 4 am to attend this night class. That wasn't the issue.
Same last week, the world celebrated World Sight day and in the regards, Nathels' Eye clinic offered good discount on all her services (which we extended to this week, in case you want to know ??). Now, this multiplied patient turnovers. That's still not the issue
Now, the issue is this:
I thought i was a super woman. (I still think i am)
I thought i could take care of myself my own way
I thought i could do it all:
Handle 5 whatsapp groups??
4 facebook pages/groups??
Patients at the government clinic?????
Patients from private clinic ?????
Prospects from all over the world ???♀?
Leads from all social media??
Partners who are not willing to push their businesses ??
Partners who are but don't know how??
Partners who are, know how to but simply refused to??
My kids and all their needs??
My husband, who is my number supporter and who always tells me to take it easy and i refused to listen ??
I thought i had it all figured out and planned out until i found myself being led to the hospital on Saturday night. All i know was that i had headaches and i thought that if i could just sleep, i will be fine. Until (according to hubby) my eyes started turning into my head, i was still and quiet and he quickly dressed up and told me we are going to hospital. Trust me, i refused. All i wanted was to sleep??Being an amazing man, he paid me no attention and whisked me to the hospital. Thanks to my amazing Rotarian friend Dr Francis Inyang who picked up my husband's frantic calls at 10 pm and quickly took care of me.
Now, this is to all hard working-business-career people
You need to take care of yourself.
Yes, i know you know cos i knew it too but i still didn't do it.
You don't have to:
?Answer all mails
?Pick all the calls
?Respond to all messages
?Be in charge of everything
?See all the patients
?Deal with all prospects
?Attend all meetings etc
Delegate the ones you can
Do the ones you can
Leave the rest
At the end, what matters will matter and all others will fade away.
Your health is far more important than the wealth you are chasing (yep, i am telling myself too)
Your family need you hale and hearty more than the wealth
You are mortal and you have a breaking point
Organize yourself and you will be more productive
This is lesson learned the hard way and mistake that will never repeat itself.
Tobe Anoliefo, i am eagerly waiting for your call but i hope Judith Ugeh-Anoliefo will help beg you to tamper justice with mercy before you call????
To my darling hubby, Essiet Idorenyin, so sorry i scared you. From today onward, my health will be my priority. Thank God that you didn't listen to me????.
To Dr Francis Inyang, God bless you and the staff of GoldCrest Medical Center. I appreciate you all.
To an improved me(yep, me ??)
I am still your #docprenuer and ain't stopping.
