Since I haven't taken the time to update everyone on my recent thoughts/experiences (trust me, you're missing out on A LOT ;p), I wanted to just briefly give you a bit of insight and entertainment with the unauthorized publication of a very cute email I mojust received from my mother. I think you can see where I get it:
Hi Warker,
I thought you might be interested to hear about how my “beyond positive thinking” is going and how odd it is the way things manifest themselves. I did everything last night to save time this morning so I could exercise. Lots of times I “forget” to even think about exercising, but it was really on my mind and planned for. I had trouble sleeping last night (which is kind of unusual anymore but it seems to happen when I take my multi-vitamin before bed instead of during the day…probably only psychological). I almost always wake up before my alarm goes off and when it finally rings I’m really ready to watch TV for only a few minutes and then go into action making my bed, flossing, etc. (Don’t you love all the details?). Anyway, this morning when my alarm rang it seemed it was the first time I was actually sleeping well and I turned off my alarm and went back to sleep for a while.
My thoughts about this are that my subconscious sabotaged my plan to exercise.
Believe me, it was really strong and up front in my conscious mind and every time I woke up during the night I remembered that I wanted to workout when I got up.
Then…on to the morning McDonald’s cookies. I figure if I only have them on Monday and Friday, as my little rewards, then it’s ok. And I knew that if I had worked out there was no way I was going to stop and buy cookies; however, I didn’t work out and therefore said to myself that I would have them anyway. Also unusual…I hit almost every single stop light red on my way to work which shouldn’t have allowed me to have time to stop at McDonald’s (but I did). Then, I really wasn’t interested in the cookies, although I was hungry, and by 10:30a.m. I had only eaten one.
So…here I am seesawing back and forth moving both forward and backward in a total mind game. It is very interesting and I’m enjoying kind of observing (or guessing) what is going on in my mind(conscious and subconscious).
Probably too much detail to read, but I don’t have anything else to write about!
