A request to borrow material

This post is somewhat long overdue and I put in pieces here and there in fits and spurts.

What I decided today is I really need "the plan". But, of course, with some rights reserved, I do need to ask permission from Post-Doc to borrow parts of it.

I will go ahead right now, assuming that she will be kind of enough to grant me the lee-way to have "the plan" of my own. ( I will leave Blitzen for her though! great idea by the way! we call that short term goal planning in my profession).

So here goes my version of the plan:

Situation 1: Health.

1. Exercize: To do 10 minutes power walk video first thing in the morning then the 30 minute extended play version sometime after lunch but before 4 PM.
2. Food: To be eating more dairy, more vegetables and balance the carbs and protein better. Need to eat better breakfasts and smaller meals throughout the course of the day.
3. Journal: I am already keeping a pretty consistent food journal so I will continue on that and add my activity to it.
4. Will manage my allergies better through diet and more routine allergy management with meds and homeopathic remedies. Consistency is key

Situation 2: Job

1. Manage my time better: I will not be working overtime unless it is situational only. I do not want to get the old behaviours back that I have worked so hard to get rid of.
2. I will not be stressing and worrying so much about what others are or aren't doing unless it affects my ability to do my job.
3. I will be handling as much on my own as possible. Management will not be called in unless I have no additional resources left.

Situation 3: My home

1. I will be organizing my closets slowly but surely. I have my bedroom done and the kitchen cabinets completed. I will slowly continue that.
2. Get rid of the extra furniture and move in the pieces that I want.
3. Paint the kitchen cabinets until I amass the money to redo that and the bathroom.

Situation 4: Finances

1. Start Special Savings account
2. Finish the payment plan on 401k loans
3. Finish paying off the last 10% of the debt that I have.

Situation 5: Education

1. Continue Voice Lessons and learn learn learn
2. Continue Performing and get past stage fright.

Situation 6: Family & Friends

1. Keep taking the cats to the Vet once a year for checkups
2. keep communicating with my immediate nuclear family often. We live close but not that close.
3. Work on those relationships that are healthy to make them stronger and work on those that aren't to make them Healthier or cut them out altogether.

Situation 7: My self esteem

1. While improving it still needs work. I know I am a worthwhile person and I have a lot of God Given talents.
2. My communicating that to myself sometimes sounds like bragging, but it's not intended to be that way. I am trying to pump myself up to a normal level. So I have to work on the delivery of that both to myself and in front of others.
3. Learn how to take a compliment. that's a big one this year.
4. Keep repeating to myself that other people do not decide how valuable I am.... I do.
5. Stop listening to negative soundtracks playing in my head. Create new GOOD ones.
