| As i'm sure there are millions of people who read this, what I am about
to say will affect a great many of you. With all of the changes
in my life right now, I do like having a place to record and comment on
big events. However, I feel that most of these changes will
affect me in personal ways and I think at this point I would like to
journal them in a non-public place. For the time being, I will no
longer be posting updates on my life on this page. I'm going to
try writing them down instead and hopefully that will mean more to me
than taking 5 seconds to type them out. I hope all goes well for
the rest of you and happy xangaing.
cheers
- M

| ok
so i went to my meeting for work tonight. it's really amazing how
a 2 hour meeting at the office can change my attitude towards this new
job. one of the concepts we talked about was the "future-based
self". basically it says that most people are "past-based"
- they resist change and believe that everything significant in their
lives has already occurred. however, the future-based person
responds to new challenges and welcomes change. i know it's
cliche, but i was sitting there, listening to this lecture and i
realized: this is exactly what i have been doing. i've been
terrified of my job because i dont want to move on. i don't want
to move on from school, from not working, from old relationships.
i would rather dwell on all of that and hold onto the memory of
something that is going to change whether i want it to or not.
so, from this day foward i've decided to make the effort to accept
challenges that are given to me, job or otherwise. look out
world, here i come.
