Positive

I have a new goal. I've realized how negative I've been lately under the false pretense that focusing in on how crappy things are will back me so far into a corner, that I will be forced to make big changes and decisions in order to make things better. Well, that seems to have manifested into ongoing physical pain I can't seem to release, as well as an overall unpleasantness. If I were friends with me, I might have avoided me. I don't want to be that person. AND, it hasn't helped. Or maybe it has in that I've decided that the opposite attitude will release the pain, and the bitter feelings of being stuck. I'm done with it. I think taking on a positive attitude will help make the changes I want to see in my life, and specifically in my career.
I spent 2 hours this weekend working on my resume. These are the steps I need to take to get me out. And -bonus- just doing some of the work, taking a first step has made me feel so much better. I feel like there's hope for a better future, I have options, I'm not stuck. I'm not done, I'm not there yet, but I'm on the path to getting there. Sometimes just strapping on your gym shoes and plugging in your ipod makes you feel better, even before you get out there to hike!
My back had been locked up for a solid 5 weeks. Lots of stretching, chiropractor visits, ice and herbal patches have done some good. But I also tried acupuncture this week, and feel much better. I'm convinced that the physical pain and tension that my body has been holding onto has been partly due to the former bad attitude. Not only has the acupuncture released some of the physical pain, I think it has further enforced, if not been responsible for, my change in attitude. I am open to the idea that releasing tension, clearing physical and emotional blockages will pave the way for positive energy in my body (no pain) and positive energy in my career and relationships.
Peace, love, happiness and positive energy.
