May I always remember
that the power within me
is far greater
than any fear before me.

Gave my best effort yesterday, still wasn't able to finish what was planned.
Plan for today:
InnerTruth's noon hour check-in
Went to bank to cash in enought of my retirement savings to last me for 3 months or so.
i had no idea how much was left and was afraid I had almost emptied my account. My mutual funds were performing well and I had a lot more in it than I thought.
I hope that's my last withdrawal and I land some decent paying work before I have to make another withdrawal.
I ned to get my life in order and start getting up and being at my desk at or before 9 am. No late night TV or the Internet.
To do for today:

Kodos 7:30
Good morning, everyone, and good luck today.
Small goals today--show up at work on time, structure my day to include some e-mail replies and follow my schedule as best I can. Thank you St. Joseph.
Kodos--12:40 check-in
Well, not bad so far. I've followed my schedule. But now, I have 50 minutes free. In theory, this should be enough time to get my e-mail box to nearly zero. In practice, I am really resisting this because there are some messages I haven't answered for MONTHS, and I feel so, so guilty. So, i'll give myself ten minutes to read some inspiration here, and try to just grit my teeth and get to the bottom of the box.
I'll update at 1:30.
Kodos --1:15
Just got called to a mtg, so I didn't finish, but I did start, which is the important thing, right?
Kodos--7:00 check-in
Okay. Not terribly productive after 3:00, BUT for the rest of the night, i'm going to follow a mini-version of my afternoon schedule.

start being grateful for what you have right now." Oprah W.
I took the quiz and my result was:Your Result: Take Time to Recognize Your Blessings You aren't focused on the good that life has to offer.
Back to keeping my gratitude journal. It really was oneof the most powerful tools in my life.
Thanks MA for starter.
