I'm getting a little behind on my post entry of my daily task. Phase 2 is different and the fact that so far my tasks (in that Phase) are group based I feel a little disapointed.
Yesterday I had to change my energy level. I tend to be between "calm/relaxed" and " Energetic/Driven" depending on the situation. I tried to keep in mind to take a different perspective. I did something that I had been putting off for a while (not a long while, but a while) in oder to go from "normally relaxed" to a little more driven. And then I took my time to do another task instead of rushing through it to address my normally energetic side to adopt a more relaxed approach to life.
The task wasn't hard as such, but I think it helped me realise that this wasn't a place in my life where things weren't black or white. I really felt that at times I was in the grey zone.
Today was Phase Two: Step 11
My task for today was to optimise my flexibilty. I feel that I'm pretty much in the middle on that. I can be very definite about certain things meaning that I'm certain and decisive and at times I can be also flexible meaning that I'm open to change (for the better) and willing to adapt. Today I had to be different. Not easy when you're in between 2 things.
Thinking back about my day, I wasn't so accomodating of someone's opinion about moving my mother's safe (that is huge and weights a lot). At one point I spoke out and told him what I thought of his appraisal of the situation. On the other side of the scale I let my mother be "right" and I didn't criticise her or what she did.
I will definetely try to apply this flexibilty more either in my work or my social life. It can only be good for me and the people around me. I'm sure this will help me to be more tolerant ... and I do know that I need to work on that. It can only make me a better person, and hopefully a slimmer one as well! ;-D
