I had a moment of weakness the other day, and it surprised me.
The details aren't super important, but I basically wasn't having the best of weeks and backslid into my old default behavior at a company gathering because I was so out of my element.
Nothing bad happened, except the lost opportunity to network and run shoulders with company leadership.
But it was a great reminder that my weaker tendencies are always going to be there. That my assumption of being 'past that' was not true at all.
No one gets to just grow past the urge to avoid discomfort, or to settle for what is comfortable. It was a nice dose of reality, and I will work harder next time.
