Sunday 7th October 2012
Lose this day loitering, t'will be the same story
Tomorrow, and the next more dilatory;
Each indecision brings its own delays,
Are you in earnest? Seize this very minute!
Boldness has genius, power and magic in it.
Only engage, and then the mind grows heated!
Begin it, and then the work will be completed!
~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

watched nfl redzone today. Talk about addicting! there's no commercials. But that was the plan. Plus i did stop and do some errands that worked out.
BUT more importantly i came here to thank God for an awesome 12 step meeting tonight. Very helpful to me.

Lavida CI Sun. 10/7
Personal goal: to not reveal so much about my own personal struggles, in the interest of keeping codependents from feeling the need to control and manipulate me. I do not have to be an open book all the time. Short and sweet. "To thine own self be true" ... I am capable of resolving my procrastination issues through myself and my Higher Power alone, and I have no interest in attracting any individual who seeks to gain power/security/focus-on-others-instead-of-self through over-helping, over-advice-giving, rescuing compulsions or controlling me in any way. Thank you God for being my only necessary source, and for helping me to be in fellowship, not sucked into others' unconscious manipulation and judgment. Only God and I know how much "progress" I have made, and I am very, very proud of myself and I know God is proud of me for still standing and moving forward despite what I've faced.

FACEBOOK BANNED TODAY, IT CAUSES UNEASE AND WASTES SO MUCH TIME
today;s mission is to get the house functionable to start a week of strict routine on monday
Facebook--so wise
Hi Jay,
I quit FB a couple of years ago and it has helped SO much. It never brought joy, healing, self-awareness, greater peace, helped with goals--it was just a black hole for the mind.
Bravo for you!!!
hi grapeseed
thanks for your imput!
that's good to hear, now i've got to make sure i don't sneak on to it. i've been thinking of deleting it but i'd rather be able to control my time on it as it is very useful for some things. music/art
it can leave me feeling negative though for lot's of reason's
it's just banned for today at the moment!
