There are times in which you feel low, depressed and frustrated, and there are other times in which you have high morale, enthusiasm and optimism. While the former feeling is counterproductive and should be treated quickly to overcome it, the latter does not necessarily mean good thing. If not handled smartly it won’t result in boosting productivity as expected.
As a matter of fact high morale leads to a rise of the self confidence and may lead to overconfidence which might have severe consequences on the ability to take the right decision. When experiencing an uptime it is crucial to keep your feet on the ground and avoid thinking that everything is possible, and can be done disregarding of the required resources and efforts.
Ignoring this fact might lead you into an endless labyrinth which results into failure to achieve any of the given goals and shorten the way to another state of depression, pessimism and frustration.
To avoid this pitfall, you should understand that this sort of ecstasy you are passing through is certainly transient and does not make you a superman. You can’t go beyond your capabilities. In fact if you try to do that you will over burn this energy in a minimum amount of time and return to square zero.
Once you are convinced that what you can’t do normally you won’t be able to achieve because of some psychological burst, you should use this energy wisely and try to get the most benefits from it.
To do that you need to concentrate your efforts on one or few tasks or goals that you need to accomplish. Do not over estimate your capacity, just prioritize the tasks or projects you have and focus on the most important ones.
Avoid spreading your efforts on multiple subjects because you will soon discover that you are not progressing on any of them and that’s bad for your morale and your body.
Remember that the up time has its own curse too. Neglecting this fact will condemn you to failure and frustration.
