I don't have the patience to be a t, and even my t acknowledged that (lol) when we talked about it a couple weeks ago and she said I could use it in HR or something. Although I have to say, I did get a "sit straight up in bed" kind of moment last night when I realized how much I enjoyed leading our team meeting yesterday, especially the first part where I did a little activity thing, I talked about gratitude and how I've been practicing it, every morning stating things I am grateful for on the way to work but realized that I hadn't been doing it lately, and my thought patterns were reflecting that (I'd been letting the negative stuff win lately and just kinda not trying to let it go, I think in large part due to this) so I told my team that when I passed the guard shack at work I began stating all that I am grateful for and was surprised that I was still talking when I pulled into my parking place, and when I stood up out of my car I swore I could feel the negative crap I'd let cling to me, just drop right off of me. Then I asked each of them to state something they were grateful for. Everyone did. Then I said "Now watch yourself the rest of the day, and see if you don't experience things going even just a little bit better." It set the tone for a really positive and engaged meeting with a lot of participation. I felt last night that there was something about doing that first part, that I felt a twinge of "THIS." I have never felt that feeling before. Interesting.

Ack! It is 6:30 already! I gotta get to work. Have a good day/ night couch!!!

I think you'd be kickarse in HR Art. You enjoy training people and you're downright inspirational Or PR even... Or outside sales... Anything that involves talking a company up... Hell, motivational speaking
