Single Perspective

I’ve been focused on noticing where my thoughts go when certain situations come up.  If it makes me agitated, I’ve been working on changing how I look at the situation and try and work myself out of being agitated, or angry or whatever.  I’ve started a philosophy in my life that I will only do things that make me feel good and that are fun.  Also, if there is some resistance, I will look at going a different direction.  I’ve also started to do things that are easy and to stay away from things that are hard or not flowing easily. 

Does this mean that I don’t do things that are challenging, things that help me grow?  No.  For example, I just went through a twelve week course on how to learn how to be a craps dealer.  I was working at the same time.  So I was at the casino for 14 hours a day, getting home at 4:00am, sleeping for 6 hours(if I was lucky) and turn around and do it all over again.  It was a hard schedule and learning craps was hard too.  But when the opportunity arose for me to do this, the starting of it and now the finishing of the course and starting this new job as a craps dealer has been one of the most rewarding things I’ve ever done for myself.  The whole experience flowed easily for me and now I’m having a great time being a craps dealer.  There was no resistance, it may have had its hard parts but the fun of it all carried me through the hardness of it. 

So I hope all of you work towards a better life and a feeling of well-being, accomplishment in your life and of course, fun!!!  Remember the famous quote, if you think you can or you think you can’t, you are right!!
