dobbywarnshryptr's Life List:
| Join the peace corp. |
| Live in a completely enviornmentally friendly home. |
| Stick to a steady exercise regime. To always be continually active. |
| Use my time wisely. Don't sit around when I know there are things to do. |
| When there is an opportunity to accel, don't say I'll wait til next time. |
| Don't think so much, just do. |
| Bring drumming back into my life as a hobby, not a chore, for myself, not for others. |
| Get a job. |
| Once I get a job, save as much money as I can for a year & find a place in L.A. No unneccessary spending!!! Ask myself why/if I need this. |
| Don't complain. Know that I can't control other's actions but I can take control of mine, have the best intentions & be confident in my decisions. Take responsibility for myself, not others. Stop letting people rely on me. It's just a distraction/procratination from my own responsibilites. It's not being greedy, it's having boundaries. Learn how to rely on myself. |
| Study motorcycle handbook & get my permit. |
| Use the computer only as neccessary. Don't waste unproductive hours on it accomplishing nothing. |
| Don't take things to heart. Realize that other people's opinions are really about themselves, not you. Grow a thick skin. What is the purpose of shrinking just because I want everyone to like me. I will never be liked by everyone. Get rid of the people I have to try to be liked by & stick with the people I'm naturally liked by. What sense does it make to keep someone in my life that likes me because I'm altering who I am. The sooner I can train my instincts to realize this, the better off I'll be. It's nothing personal, it's just the way people click. |
| Master time-management. I know I can do it. |
| When a situation calls for a few extra steps than anticipated, don't try to make it work without the needed steps. THAT ONLY TAKES LONGER WHEN I REALIZE IT WON'T WORK & I HAVE TO TAKE THE EXTRA STEPS ANYWAYS!!! |
| Go to school & get a degree. |
| Work in movie production. |
| Learn how to remain internally peaceful in the most stressful situatioins. |

Apparently a little tension is good
Tension means that we are growing and changing, it is just how we view it. Keep on your journey with Tools and see what further improvements are just around the corner.
Have a great day! Angie
This is GOOD
This too shall pass. YOU will make the better choice more often as you continue to work at it. Rejoice it how you KNEW that you have the choice. That is POWERFUL and so are you =)
Feel the fear and do it anyway, strictly speaking of moving forwards as sometimes we are fearful of past patterns repeating. You could yell loudly inside or verbalize "YES!"
Yes I can make this choice
Yes I am in control
Yes I am making my life better
Yes I deserve to be happy
The old self does not want to cease to exist, you are not that old self you are the truth, life is about love and loving life.LIVE, SMILE and know that my energy is sent to you improving and enjoying this journey!
I like your pic btw!!!

Scary to let go
Hey Dobby,
Don't beat yourself off over it! I think we all relapse when going through this program. I know I certainly have. The most important part is you came back here and wrote this blog and you are telling yourself that it isn't cool to follow the old path. It happens, but you are building tha habit of sharpening your good tools now and it gets easier and easier. I hope! haha.
I've fallen off a few times and I'll lay there in bed in the morning and think of excuses to not go to work like I used to do.. Or to just go nuts and have fun with some of my favorite vices.. But I make sure to throw the tools website up and it reminds me there is someting better that I want for myself and although it isnt easy, I'm gonna love life a thousand times more if I just push through. So when you fall off you might feel down, but you did the right thing and if you just give it a little push to get through to the next day, feelings clear up and you'll feel GREAT!
Keep on goin'
Hi Dobby....
As Madonna says..." I get up again, over and over, .....if I lose I don't feel paralyzed... it's not the game it's how you play and if I fall.... I get up again."
I agree... feel the fear and do it any way!
God has a plan for us all... it's all good!
Smile... physically smile.... it releases endorphins and makes you feel good automatically.
Good for you for even joining this website!
