Today is day 90 for me in T2L. Wow.
Once, I forgot to click 'finished' and had do Tools at night in order to catch up. Then, on day 84, my computer crashed. It still hasn't gotten back to where I want it, but I can complete the course - I only lost two days of at home internet access (the Horror!! :) )
90 days. Three months of starting the day with Clap! "I'm having a Great day!"
And I have. These habits are really paying off.
On a couple of days I sluffed off. On those days I really noticed how different my old behaviour was from what my new habits have built.
My coworkers and I work well together and Enjoy each other. That isn't all me, of course. But it also isn't the way things have always worked in the past.
I started walking the 2 miles to work each day, and listening to my tapes along the walk. What a difference! That nagging, negative, all-too-familiar voice in my mind has been silenced. It takes a back seat to a new set of automatic thoughts, and they are all on My side :)
When I sat down to write this, I didn't think there was much to say, but there sure is!
I have always been haunted by echos of a bad childhood (I know, I know. I recognize you from the club meetings. How ya doin'?) But not so much now. In fact, there has been One bad night since day 14. Just one. It feels like I took off a lead suit!
I take vitamins every day. I talk to my sweetheart, really listen to her, every day.
I am loving this! Who knows what life will be like after a year of using these tools? Day 90, and counting!!
