DAY 7; Principle 1

I have to tell you, there is something to this taking 100% responsibility and no complaining.

I FEEL FANTASTIC!

I am sick with a serious cough and cold, I am saddened by the Passing of Jen's dear sister-in-law Maritza, I have been working my ass off, putting in 14 hour days...

BUT BY GOLLY I FEEL GOOD. REALLY GOOD.

A simple adjustment in attitude can really make all the difference.

Also paying serious attention to my yellow alerts has made a big difference. I have realized when something doesn't feel right to me, it isn't right for me!

Now, when something doesn't feel right I STOP, take a moment, analyze, and see if there is anything I can do to make it feel right. If I can't, I will simply and politely remove myself from the situation.

A great thing I have been experiencing is, it seems, most people really do care and don't want others to be unhappy or uncomfortable.

When you let others know you are not comfortable, for the most part, they are are interested and genuinely willing to try and find a way to make everyone involved happy, at the very least comfortable.

This has reminded me, we are all human, we all want to be happy and feel comfortable. It is something that I believe everyone can relate to.

So, when your yellow lights go on don't be afraid to advocate for yourself. People actually respond positively to it and I think, respect it.

I feel like I am ready.

Principle 2 here I come!
