I used to ask him if the cracks were showing. Never anything to worry about. I think we are much harder on ourselves for losing it than needed. I base that only on what others tell me, I'm pretty sure I'm not doing good enough and need to work harder.
December 3, 20177 yr Let's stay on a roll of me bitching. This weather change is making my arthritis go crazy! Squats help though.

Knowing that people I look up to deal with struggles is important. As long as you feel safe sharing, it's probably helping someone brotato chip. Just super happy to see something good happen for someone good. Thank you guys.

The circle of beliefs around it are the fundamental control points. When I am overwhelmed it is usually because I am stuck in problem thinking. Once I can shift my thought pattern to solution thinking the anxiety usually lifts... with nothing else changing.

December 3, 20177 yr I have a whole book on what you just said in my journals and my mind. It's all about spending time on the problem, and how you have to split your time between systems development and mastery of whatever system your working on. I really implemented behavior over feelings systems and stuck to it hard. I used my systems to develop mastery in others and despite having direct interference from my bosses, I won awards for best in my local and 5 of the 8 peers I meet with are direct mentees of mine. Our top 3 sales people are my trainees. The whole time I felt intense pain and exhaustion but I just used behaviors as a guide and acted according to the outcome I wanted and never how I felt about the situation. it's crazy how violent the storm is that I'm in. We've had 50% attrition. I'm not saying I'm happy. I'm saying I'm unbelievably stable considering the waves. I don't think I would be any happier had I followed the Feelings I had at the time, but I would be 100% more unstable.

Being a very calculated and meticulous person it has allowed me to breathe easier.
December 3, 20177 yr I attempted being feather brained and lighthearted, but that shit was way too sloppy.

After reevaluating my values I realized my mental sanity and well-being was way higher on the list then fame and fortune.
December 3, 20177 yr Besides we're just on a big goddamn rock spinning eastward through space and time. No one gets out alive so kick back and enjoy the ride. :-)
December 4, 20177 yr I need to get in shape for a snowboard/ski/snowmobile trip in the mountains. What should I do?

December 4, 20177 yr Finally got the Fiat on the road for 40-50 miles today. First time in about 15 years it's been on the road.
