I guess there's just a lot of things going on these days that I don't know what to make heads and tails of. Part of it is self inflicting wounds. Others are circumstance by happenstance. Examples mainly come from work.
First off, I more than gladly took up being an Assistant Training Officer for our peeps. Which means my "Monday's" are filled with reaffirming people they are scheduled to lecture about 'something' we need to know. Meanwhile, Wednesday's are filled with prepping and hoping people show up and make sure my paperwork is completed out. So, I can say these people got the training they were prescribed. Then, Thursday or Friday, the lesser of two evils are filled with me logging online all these people (45+ in total) training plans. Oh, brother....
The next subject is about Lean. Or, Six Sigma. Or, "AIRSpeed" as other call it. "Green Belt," as the term is called. Finally as I put it, "Getting shit done in the most productive of manner without defects the first time." This is a multi-project moment for me. Where the first one, I didn't even know I was doing till it was too late. Then, around April/May, I was tagged into an actual project. So, in part the faster I can get into completing projects. The better off I'll be. For Realz!
The third item to blog about is my big mouth. About three, maybe four months ago I joined a Suicide Prevention Committee. It's basically a group of people whom help other co-workers in finding the help they need before drama escalates. I'm totally not putting this down in the best of words, but I'm just going to keep it un-politically correct for now. It's a can of worms. I went to my second meeting and I mentioned we all pitch in for an "Out of the Darkness" walk. Then it turned into me become research and development team with a couple of co-workers. Then it turned into calling the people, then asking the committee if we even wanted to pursue this. Now, I'm waiting on the big boss to say, "Make it happen." And I don't think I have the time in the world to do this. It's seriously a multi-person project. Though, I do have my friends and co-workers.... It's a stress'er none the less.
Finally, I just got training and will hopefully take on the responsibility of help people in their careers. Which means I get to be all involved in nearly everyone's business. Talk about a wild trip! I don't even know if I would have the answers to help Mr. Schmuckatelly. However, I can help if he needed guidance. Set up goals and carry them out. I stop myself and think, if it was me now but in my last company. I would be a great mentor. I think. Wait, do great mentors "think" they're great mentors? Maybe I'm not so much "the shit."

Anyway, if it was me two years ago. I think I would have rocked this responsibility. However, now it's all about putting on my big boy pants.
If you think about it, five huge responsibilities is a lot to care for. Especially when it's not just my career I'm worried about. There's a load of leadership involved and no idea if anything "works" till I give it my 100%. Which is the bully in my head. I'm the type of person Who HATES waisting time. Especially my time. Though I don't think any of the listed subjects above are a waisting my time. They sure are sucking the life out of me. Holy cow! At work it's like having 10 internet browsers open and shuffling threw each one at a 5 minute pulse. What the duck, batman!
As far as "responsibilities" go... And the listed above is a clever way of exploiting all of those. Meanwhile, in my artistic psychie, I have started to finish my PostOmnis album and begin on another. We've all been waiting my me to release a solo album from P.O. And I think the beauty of this is about to flourish. Already 12 minutes of music is recorded and I'm working on a couple more tracks. The goal is to have about eight songs recorded and released soon. Maybe a winter release. If not, next year around February.
For any drops of information about my possible solo work. I've been working on manipulating the aurora of sounds in my life. For its Mr. Igor Stravinsky whom said, "Music is given to us with the soul purpose of establishing order in things, including to, the coordination between man and time."
For a long time I did not grasp this till about 3 months ago and now my imagination has caught fire.
