I just needed to unload stuff in my head & didn't want to bore anyone with my numerous dramas & fears...so I figured I will dump here in my newly created Journal!!! There is some crazy things in my head that I need to get out completely, so read at your own risk...and not on an empty stomach or on a full one either - LOL!!

Wanted to send gratitude to you all and this group for all the good that came out of today and I'll try really hard to keep it short.

The interview went well, they wanted me for a position that I would have loved but the scheduling didn't work out, so I agreed to take another position, if that works out.

Actually my office manager called me (I called in a vacation day yesterday & today), & left a bad but mostly good message, so I was expecting to say I'm giving 2 weeks notice, I can no longer handle this position and am failing at it (which is true) and her accepting this.

I did end up uninstalling again. Then I reinstalled, and I made a backup copy of the help file in case it vanishes again.

I'm having a problem and I know some people here are in software fields. Hoping someone can help.

When Vic posted the 4shared.com site the other day, i checked it out and found a lot of self help stuff out there.   I'm not sure this site is entirely legal, but anyway I did download a few things.  One thing I found was a lecture from Tony Robbins about redefining success and failure and it really resonated with me so I thought I'd share it with you guys.  

Here's a summary of what he said:

I am looking for a good way to review Excel 2007: I was never very good at Excel and have not used it since the early 90's. I want to get my skills better so I know what I know and what I don't know. I have a prospective job that I am a likely candidate, but I must know Excel well. Any suggestions for a training tool? I want to start today if I can.

I am now in a place where i am working my lists which is great but sometimes like today 9/11 I feel like I'm spinning my wheels.  When I am doing all that I am supposed to showing up, prepared, taking the actions and get stalled I feel like I am going to explode.  I don't know if this is a blood pressure spike, I know it is anxiety but I would like to be more calm because I think better and I get more done when I relaxed.

Please remember to contribute.  Even a small amount helps.  Pro does a great job of creating and maintaining the web site (thanks Pro!), so please contribute what you can to go toward the cost of hosting the site.  This site is SO important to our recovery, so send a little financial love to the site!

Be Larger

In this dark hour,
golden forces muster
to greet all semblance of fear,

to cast spiritual light upon the darkness
and make discord disappear,

sweet dear,
such is the mighty power
within your heart-felt prayer,

as we become comrades
in the common endeavor
of allegiance to life,

through whatever strife
the world may deliver,
