Bad Week

 

This has been a bad week - and it's only Tuesday. Both yesterday and today I woke up grumpy. I followed my morning routine - turn alarm clock off and get up, clap my hands "I'm having a great day", get dressed, and head out the door. That's where it all goes sour - getting into the truck and heading to a place where no matter what I do or how I do it, I feel unappreciated and unsatisfied. Do I like my job? Yes, I enjoy what I do and I feel good when I make my customers happy. What I don't like so much is who I work with. Some people are constantly negative and I get pulled down with them. Others are always on my case about something and I can never please them. Normally I can handle this - normally its water off a duck's back. This week? Hell, plain and simple. I have recited my new mantra "I am having a great day!" over and over again, clapped my hands to help my brain believe it, and yet for some reason I just can't get out of this funk. To make it all worse, I am conciously choosing to not make time for my Tools. I have looked five times are Day 3's exercise - turning problems into opportunities - and I just keep telling myself "I don't have time for this right now."

Smarten up honey! Tools will help me to push through this garbage, it will give me the strength to accomplish anything I want. So how do I plan to turn this week around if I can't make the time for Tools? Simple - I am going to make the time for Tools. Right now I am setting my plan into action. I will complete Day 3 as soon as I get home. I will continue to chant my mantra, and I will get through today. It may or may not improve, but I will do my best and forget the rest.

Right now, I am making a commitment - 5:30 tonight I will do my Tools. I will not let you down! I will not let myself down! I will turn this week around and by tomorrow it will be GREAT!

I will have a great day!

Yes, stick with it!

You'll learn a lot more ways of how to deal with people like your coworkers, so just keep making that time for Tools and it'll get better!

I did it!

I made a commitment to come home and finish Day 3. I did it, and I feel great. Tomorrow, I will have a great day. I have renewed excitement to learn the Tools to Life!

Steady on

Do it when you have your coffee or tea on the morning, You make time for yourself then and it is easy to integrate that little bit of time into your schedule.  I found that the easiest route.  If you need to express yourself you can do it later and then you have some food for thought during the day.  I now drink that water first before the coffee even.  Keep going, there is much to be said for consistancy.

Javanne Javanne:

Follow through

good for you you have stick~with~it~ness
