Day 7

Well Ladies, today I hit a wall. It was an absolute terrible school day. Nothing the kids did.......it was totally by my own doing. The wall came in the form of a long list of things to do. The funny part, looking back onto the morning is that none of it HAD to be done. They were all things I WANTED to accomplish today. When this happens, I tend to push schooling to the side and take time away from the kids to accomplish "the List". My mind is set on just wanting to bulldoze through my list. I tend to forget about priorities at that point and focus too much on the projects and checking them off the list. This then creates undue stress on me and the kids. I need to find a good way to balance everything.............or maybe find a way to balance less period. If I could get myself to fully focus on one thing at a time, that would even help. Has this ever happened to anyone else?

So, to take a little breather for the day here, I am going to give you some more questions to think about from the insecurities we were talking about yesterday if you are ready to move on. Please let me know if you feel this is all too much information to take in at one time and if you would prefer to have some time for it all to soak in and implement it before I post other stratagies or ideas. If so, do you have any ideas about a better format to the posts? I This is your blog too, let me know what would work better for you all.

Here are some other questions to think about............a continuation from yesterday.

1)What behavior traits do I need to develop in order to overcome my insecurities?
2) What substitute behavior traits could I develop that would indecate security in myslef?
3) What are some positive consequences of exhibiting such secure behavior traits in my life?
4) What are some rational beliefs I must develop in order to exhibit secure behavior in my life?

Please give me your feedback on the content and format of this blog. I would like to be able to serve us all in the best way possible.

Peace in your day!

  1. I don't know how to "follow" your blog. I signed up yesterday under my yahoo account and asumed I would get an email update, which hasn't happened today. I follow a lot of groups on my facebook page...its really easy to do...anything the group admin. posts (ie status update, link, or note) shows up on my wall.
