Attitude and Control

Some time ago there was a lesson on hitting a bump in the road through this 90 day program. I have read a few blogs of people saying that they hit it shortly after that particular day. Well I didn't hit it quite that fast, I will consider yesterday a little bump in the road.

The readers digest version of this goes something like this:

Yesterday started out like any other day, I woke up, stated my affirmations, did my tools and was at the Gym for a workout by 6...so far so good. After that a few things from my recent and not so recent past showed themselves. I went over a few things with my attorney on a personal and prossional level that created a bit of anxiety in my life(No need to go into the details right now), then I a number of things took a turn in the wrong direction from a work perspective, then to make matters worse found myself in the middle of a ridiculous arguement with the people I work with everyday. So there you have the very abrievated version of my day.

Here is what I find interesting both as I lived through it and as I look back on it. I was and am much more concious of how the things in my life were impacting me on a personal and emotional level than I ever have been before in real time(as they were hapening)!! I had a bad day, not horrible, but bad and it is in my past, I choose not to dwell on in and got my Friday off to a postive start and I am determined to staty in control of my response to anything the day throws at me.

Interestingly enough Today's tools topic was on control and emotional responses to things that happen to us or around us It could not have occured in a more timely basis for me.

Thanks Coach for this topic and I am trying to forget about yesterday and look forward to today and what is happening now, rather than dwell on the past. Throughout the last 24 hours I caught myself complaing and making excuses...at first I was disappointed by this, but now I am simply chosing to be grateful that I have the ability to recognize that I was doing these things and try to move forward from here.

Enjoy the day and the weekend!!!!
