Positive refresher course


Today I decided to watch a self help movie that I haven't watched in a long time. The movie is called "The Secret" it's a great movie about controlling our thoughts and using positive thinking to create our lives the way we want to live it. I don't believe that my explanation is doing the movie justice....so checkout the website on your own and judge for yourself. thesecret.tv

Toga night


Tonight at Partners Ultra Lounge in Portage is Toga night!!! Terry and I are making our Toga costumes for the party and I would not have believed that creating a Toga would be so difficult. I looked like a bundle of unrolled toilet paper. Luckily a few minor touches and safety pins in the right places, made for a pretty cool costume. ...
Now how do I get out of this thing?

Bummer


Last night I got a bit of bad news,when I found out that the website name that I was working so hard to create was already taken. I tried to think of alternative names and spellings....but none seemed to work. After a few hours of stressing over a domain name...I remembered a domain that I had purchased a long time ago but never used. My mood instantly changed and my thoughts for my business took a completely different turn...for the better.

Sink or swim


I'm about to start my own business and the closer the deadline gets...the more nervous I get. I'm trying my best not to get distracted,but every so often the thought of what could go wrong runs through my head. So today when the thought of doubt tried to take over,I simply got on the computer and began designing t-shirts for my website. Pat on the back for me :)

Half full


What does the future hold for us? Good or bad,we have a choice to look at our daily circumstances as a hurdle or a lesson. Sometimes the future can be a scary thought to ponder...though the uncertainty can cause ones imagination to run wild. So when my fears begin to get the best of me...I try to remember the positive things in my life and to maintain focus on the goals at hand.

Web building


Since the company that I work for is planning to close its doors by October 18th,the number of employee's have quickly dwindled to a streamlined few. Some have transferred to our other sister plants. Some have quit or got fired for some reason or another. The remaining few continue to push forward to the very end...still not sure of what's to come,once they are handed that last paycheck. As for me,I plan to keep my eye's open for other employment...but I don't plan to rely on that as my only source of income.
I would like to start my own business. So on my days off,I have been working diligently on creating a website to sell my t shirts online. It's slowly coming along and looking better and more professional everyday. I'd be lying if I said that I wasn't nervous about my own financial future...but I try not to think about it or let it distract me from my goals.
As Leonardo De Caprio once said in the movie TITANIC,"When you have nothing,you have nothing to lose."

Day one

Thursday 12th, August 2010. Day one of my new diet. At 250 pounds, I am the largest I have ever been. History has proven that I'm not cut out to be your average Energizer Gym bunny, who gets up everyday at 5am just to workout...So I have to find a healthy eating plan that works for me. I decided to start my day by eating a "Healthy Choice Cafe' Steamers" meal @ 260 Calories with a diet Sprite. Later, on my way to work I stop at "Subway" and order a footlong Veggie sub on whole wheat bread @ 470 Calories, which I split up into 2 meals during my 12 hour work day. Then when I get home I finish up my daily meals by eating another "Healthy Choice Cafe' Steamers dinner" with a Diet Sprite. Ending my Calorie intake for the day at 990 Calories. Not bad if I do say so myself.

Good deed for the day

Last night on the way to the bar,I happened to walk by a dumpster and heard faint "meow". I stopped in my tracks and waited silently to see if I heard what I thought I heard. "meow" THERE IT WAS AGAIN! I then looked in the dumpster and saw nothing,but I could still hear the kitten asking for help. The little guy had managed to crawl into a hole rusted out in the bottom of the dumpster and got himself trapped. Luckily I managed to find help and the friend that helped me rescue the scared kitten also agreed to take him home and nurse him back to health. It was a good day.

The secret to the secret


Recently,I found out that there is a secret to the secret. Apparently,how the law of attraction works is to imagine something that you want and find a photograph of that image along with a photograph of yourself next to that image and stare at the images for like 5 minutes. Think of yourself enjoying the item or lifestyle that you want,and do this everyday. Try not to think of how the image will manifest...just continue your imagination exercises and let the universe take care of the rest.

Captured


Yesterday I had a dream that started as a pleasant experience as being a bear rummaging through abandoned buildings looking for food to turning into a human running away from the military. I was told by security to stay in the room while they question a friend of mine...but my curiosity got the best of me,so I wondered out into the hallway looking for my friend. I saw a group of medical doctors surrounding my friend and holding him down while they administered some sort of drug into his arm. My gasp drew attention to me and that's when security quickly apprehended me. At that point in my dream I was handcuffed to a chair and told to shut up. Some how in my dream I knew how to pick the lock and work my way out of the handcuffs and free myself. I then opened the window and anticipated security looking for me on the grounds so I climbed to the roof instead and hid in the shadows...I could hear the sirens and searched for my next move when I was woken up by the television.

Unexpected friend


Tonight,a group of us went to the Partners Ultra Lounge for a few drinks,when a straight guy walked into the bar and sat by himself. Eventually the newbee began to chat and include himself in the conversation. He said he liked the atmosphere and friendliness of the bar. No one tried to hit on him or make him feel uncomfortable...just a group of guys laughing and having a good time. It was like we were bridging the gap between straight and gay...one friend at a time.
