Mindset: Focused on gratitude. It's odd how my waking thoughts tend to be dread or anxiety, but I'm getting much better at reprogramming decades of impulse. It only takes a couple of minutes to focus on what's good to prevent a spiral of anxiety or frustration. When the dog wakes you from a sleep by licking your face do you grimace and shove it away out of irritation of the rude awakening or laugh and connect to the affection, excitement and impermanence? Jen apologized for being in my way at the sink and all I could do was reflect with love on how glad I am she's here to get in my way at all.
Goals: Setting aside the MacBook Air today as much as I can so I can focus on some writing. I'll be using the remarkable for that.
Anticipation: Writing. I want to write about perception vs reality when it comes to actions and intentions - in particular reflecting on Jen's ex and their families stance on us. Oh, and more time learning to read music, as it's clear I need that skill.
Wants: To play piano more. To enjoy a morning walk. To maintain my downward trajectory with weight (back under 180!). To foster more connections with others. To kick off LivingWake.
