Becoming Bakitza

An aspiring bakitza attempting to slowly take control of her journey


4th Rule – Work

Dear Conscience,

The second week of 2024 started. After having concluded that my 3 basic rules are somewhat ingrained now, today is when I have to get serious with my 4th rule — work full days on workdays.

Today started shaky, it is 11a.m. and I haven’t really started yet. So I won’t spend too much time here wondering and pondering. I’ll get going. This is important! I’ll wait with the 5th rule until I am somewhat happy with how this one is working out. I’ll revisit at the end of the week.

Sincerely,
B.

About Me

I got my first nickname when I was 4 years old. It was “bakitza”, which means ‘an old lady’. I’ve always been an old lady on the inside. And as I progress towards being an old lady on the outside too, I want to take control of this journey. To reach the full fledged bakitza level with a peace of mind I always associated with that life stage. I thought it would come on it’s own with age. But now I realize that I have to take control over the mess that my life currently is in order to be a thoroughly satisfied bakitza one day.
