51 of 100 ... The Best Part of My Experiment!

I know it has to do with focus, with motivation, with perseverance.  I know it has to do with pushing down the saboteur and bringing forward the champion.  No one can do it for me, but I can look to others for inspiration. 

I listened to this yesterday.  My take-away?  Depression (in some cases) has to do with a focus on the self.  However, we can influence it if we take responsibility for it. In order to get out of it or change it, look outward, to times of joy, when you made a difference in someone's life.  Think hard on that time, on others ... and your inner dialogue will change, your demeanor will change and your motivation will change.

Gratitude:
1.  Today, I`m grateful for another good INR - 2.4.  I`ve been stable enough that they are transferring me to my doctor.  Not sure how I feel about that, but will manage.  
2.  Today, I`m grateful that I found a book I was looking for.  It`s called How To Bring Out The Best in People - I`m going to use it at work to assist me in suggesting there is another way to deal with a problem, AND it will demonstrate to the client a much better message than the one they`re showing now. 
3.  Today I`m grateful for the opportunity to do a bit of leading at work.  My first time, actually, outside of the classroom! 
4.  Today, I`m grateful for the ideas I got to present at our weekly `Toolbox Talks`... on the one hand, I wish they`d realize that I have a lot of potential and they`re not giving me appropriate responsibilities; on the other hand, they aren`t paying me to do this, and a bit of me resents being used for something that they`re not recognizing me and paying me for. Someone else is getting those benefits and they`re not doing the job.  I will use my ideas and I will show up every other person in our group.  So there!  Arrogant ... no, it has taken me a while to get to this point. 
5.  Today, I am grateful for a nice warm bath and heading to bed as soon as I finish this line. So be it ... good night!
