How I spent this week: Strength drained, a lot achieved

It is a known fact that there is a sense of accomplishment when we sincerely assist others. Most times our impact on people's lives can not be fully understood by us, however to the people we extended our hands to, it may mean the whole world to them. This week was full of a lot of stress for me, to the extent that I manage to sleep for 4hours at a stretch. This is occasioned by some travels, work, reading and more work. Haha.

I was opportuned to assist with the remodelling of an existing building into something bigger and more comfortable. I used my monday to travel close to the site location. Tuesday saw us clearing the site and removing some obstructions along the proposed building area.

From wednesday the setting out was done and the foundation trench was excavated to a depth of 1000mm to enable stability of the building. Due to the urgency of the project, we usually work till late in the night. The experience has been fun yet stressful.

I remember some companies listing "ability to work under stress" as one of the requirements to work with them.

Opportunity Cost: The week has been stressful and fruitful because the idea of constructing a decent structure for people gives me and my team satisfaction. The only issue I seem to have with the work at this time is the timeframe it is expected to be delivered which has encroached to my time on Steemit, and that is the opportunity cost, foregoing Steemit for civil engineering construction, although temporarily. I have been restricted these past days and may be the days ahead to just commenting on people's post briefly and umtimely.

I wish a little consideration will be given to me by you. I am unhappy that I have not responded to @topkpop on the @alliance project. I am a minnow today but will grow with her support and your support too. The people that may likely understand fully what it is like to work on such cramped schedule includes @theheralds, @motoengineer, a fellow civil engineer. I will endeavor to keep you updated with the project on hand and will not leave Steemit, come what may.

I love you ALL.
