Acting on my new focus . . .
So with every focus there needs to be a plan…well, at least that’s how I am. And I have come up with one. My plan on getting my joy back. Returning to my otterness.
First, I have made a commitment to me to make this happen. To be someone that when others think of me, they visualize smiles and laughter, bubble and perk.
Second, listen to my meditation CD on the 7 Steps to True Freedom, that John Solomon created and recorded, every night. I put it on “repeat all” so when I fall asleep I can continue to listen over and over. I’m experiencing the message working it’s way through my unconscious, down into my sub-conscious, and both are bringing it to my conscious.
Third, I am consciously allowing laughter of all kinds to fill my mouth and roll out. None of these big grins, minus the laughter. If I’m feeling a laugh I let it out. Be it a giggle or a full fledged laugh. If I’m feeling a bubble, I bubble my way through my conversation.
Fourth, when I begin to feel stress I take 4 deep breaths and tell myself to “remain the otter”. Then I consciously work with myself to allow the moment to just be what it is, a moment that will pass. A moment I can enjoy in spite of what’s going on.
This is just the beginning. What I’ve come up with to date. My first four steps that I’ve taken toward my goal. I’m expecting great things!
Today my night job was canceled so I didn’t have any work today as opposed to yesterday, when I worked all afternoon and then all evening following picking up Zac from school and making him a healthy lunch. Well, I didn’t do any outside, immediate income producing, work. I did have work I did in conjunction with our businesses that will produce income…soon. Now all is quiet around here. Cal and Dan are asleep. Zac just finished watching Julie and Julia and I have to admit, that this movie did cause my neck to crane around the edge of the monitor more than I should have, love that movie saw it three times when it was at the theater, and I’m about to head to bed looking forward to the 9 a.m. meeting we’re having to further plan out some videos we will begin shooting very soon and excited that I will also be spending time with my ultra busy daughter Sarah, who will be 17 on Sunday, too. 
Night love ya,
Theresa Jane
