The flesh vs. spirit I realize how the flesh works. Or can say how the devil uses the flesh to work against us. Was super tempted to report sick on Monday. Call it Monday blues or exhaustion over the weekend or whatever. I was literally dragging myself out of bed in the morning, super unwilling to go to work. But I talked myself out of it in the end, because I had people coming into the office to be interviewed by me. And to reschedule all of them will be a big hassle for myself, and a big inconvenience imposed on my colleague who will have to reschedule or interview on my behalf. And, I wouldn't be paid if I skip 1 days' worth of work. That means less $$$ earned. It also wouldn't reflect too well on me, even though I felt that I ought to see the doctor for my cough. In any case, I turned up for work in the end. That was a good decision apparently, because I managed to interview many good candidates, and to fill a temp position that day. Otherwise, I would have entirely missed out on that chance! A big sigh of relief there. Haha. Amazingly, I felt energized on Tuesday, eager to work my butt off. It is a huge contrast to how I began my Monday! And I could hardly explain the difference in emotions/drive to work. It might be the fact that filling a temp position raised my happiness level, but it was definitely more than just that. In any case, I have proven and convinced myself that not giving in to the flesh is the right choice. And I should do that more often and let my spirit win more frequently. Haha!
