Its been a sunny week on the path


Some weeks are cloudy, rainy or muggy, this week it's been sunny. I lot of good things have happened this week which is leading to more things and has built up to this point. Once things turned for the better starting with my therapist helping me get something done at the hospital that needed to be done. A family friend and my plumber calling me after a long while but right on time. Those two things started the ball rolling and I didn't stop there. I know accomplishing small things keeps you in a positive mood and keeps you from falling into the pit of despair because of the larger goal not seeming to move just yet.  

I'm always been a guy that can crush larger goals but smaller ones give me issue. It may sound crazy to some because doing a larger goals are smaller goals that are linked together. That's true. Those goals are easier to deal with. I'm talking about smaller goals that don't link directly to larger one. Ones that will shape a larger goal but not one your actively thinking about or trying to obtain. Health is a larger goal where you sometimes don't see a small thing as effecting it until you either realize it yourself or have a friend of health professional point it out. Even worse something happens to you first before you realized anything. 

This week as my friend and plumber fixed piping issues in the bathroom and kitchen to the larger goal of fixing the house. I looked at the smaller goals of getting into a routine for myself, the one thing I'm horrible at. I can take care of other, give advice but when it comes to me. I have to have my own person driving me to do stuff. Since both my mother and granny have both passed on. I don't really have that 'hard stop" in that department. I have friends that ask or see that I'm in a certain mood or doing something in particular and say something. Right now I don't have a person that will give me that look and say, stop, you need to go do this NOW.  So now I have to listen to an inner voice for that. I believe its still my granny and mom talking to me from the other side LOL. I know its really me internalizing their lessons and I need to listen to that voice like I listened to them

So I have a morning habit, sometimes I break it but I go back and finish it. Old habits die hard. I'm doing it right now. I didn't finish as soon as I finish this I'm going to go back and finish. Sometimes my creative side drives me to do something now while I'm thinking about it. I only create when I'm in the mood. If I tried to write this an hour later after driving myself to do the routine I would have lost the spark and you probably wouldn't hear about any of this. As it wouldn't have flowed and I probably would have edited this into the waste basket. I do understand this and don't get down on myself when i do it. I just go back and finish. I think that's the biggest leap. 

So yeah, This week coming I'm going to keep doing small projects that I can get a win at to keep the positive momentum going. Happy Easter and everyone have a great week ahead.
