I’m Still Stressed From My Project

It wasn’t enough for me to stress out yesterday about all the things that needed to be done to get this project off the ground, today I’ve gotten no response from my partner about things that need to be completed before we can proceed.

Nuttin, nada, no email, no skype, no phone call,  no fax.  Can you tell I’m wound up?  This partner was so excited about working together they must have been overcome by the stress.  Maybe they forgot to do their deep breathing exercises, or maybe they pulled a muscle while exercising.  I don’t know, all I know is “silence“.

I do have other tasks I can work on to move forward but it is still frustrating to be moving forward at a great pace one day and all of a sudden come to a screeching halt the next.  The halt in itself wouldn’t be a problem except I want this project to go smoothly so I can use it as a showcase for my other clients/partners.  I’m also hoping this partner can be a reference for those other projects.  They have already agreed that if this goes well they will be happy to recommend me to others.  And actually have some friends in mind.

So, come on, let’s get this off the ground and get moving forward.  I can’t run any advertising until I have these questions answered.  Everyone is sitting around with their finger hovering over the “Go” button just waiting for the word.  I try not to let them get too stressed out while waiting - they know what the situation is currently and are taking the time to relax and meditate.  Maybe even working out or resting.

I’ll be sure to let everyone here know the results of this project when it finally kicks off but in the meantime, remember that you don’t have to do it all yourself and if you find yourself stressed out, check out the tips found here Stress Management.
