The experiment continues
Well, it is my second day. So far so good.
Last night was a bit odd. With all the excitement over my DD's new job I was so tired in the evening I forgot to take my sleeping pill. I was up every hour on the hour 4 times, so at the fourth wake up I decided to get up and have some hot coffee (yes, coffee relaxes me). When I looked on my desk, there was my sleeping pill resting nicely in it's container.
Hmm. What to do now? My doctor had recently increased the dosage, and I still had some of the weaker ones in my medicine box, to I returned the stronger dose to it's bottle and took one of the weak ones and managed to get six hours of solid sleep. (Happy dance)
On the self-help front, I've run into my wall. I am taking an online course, Liberate Your Life by Chris Cade, and reading a book, the Reconnection by Dr. Eric Pearl. They fit together amazingly well, or did until yesterday. Both of them reached a point of requiring me to fulfill certain exercises before continuing at the same time, which immediately sent me looking for the next shiny thing. So far I have held myself back other than to read a wonderful article about procrastination, "Slaying the PROCRASTINATION dragon" by Jackie. http://www.365lessthings.com/slaying-the-procrastination-dragon-by-vicki/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+365LessThings+%28365+Less+Things%29
It helped me to understand a better way to face the wall. Also I remember a line from "the Last Lecture," which I watched several years back, when he said 'remember the wall is not there to stop you. It's there to determine how badly you want something." Okay, I'm paraphrasing but I'm sure you get the meaning.
Now, for grins and giggles, I'm going to learn to add a picture to my post.
