<p>In last weeks post, <a title="Prev Post" href="http://tecthought.wordpress.com/2008/10/10/issues-of-the-week/" target="_blank">Issues of the Week</a>, I put the following out there for your viewing:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;because I want to use the <strong>Positive Public Pressure</strong> from Leo’s article to get me headed toward my ultimate goal, which is I’m going to figure out how to correctly deal with my emotions.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>It was a &#8220;big&#8221; goal that I hadn&#8217;t really broken down into steps.  Still haven&#8217;t written anything down to keep me on track or to see my progress, but I can feel it.</p>
<p>This week I&#8217;ve read several article relating to stress and stress/emotion management.  The next time I do so I&#8217;ll have to remember where they were so I can share them with you.  Sorry about that.</p>
<p>Here are some other things that I have done, particularly on those &#8220;extra stressful&#8221; days, that have, so far, kept me on a more comfortable track.</p>
<ul>
<li>Daily I prayed for self-awareness</li>
<li>Meditated in the middle of the day</li>
<li>Read stress related articles</li>
<li>Blogged</li>
<li>At the end of the day, tried to remember if there were any triggers or events that seemed to make things worse.  </li>
</ul>
<p>I know it&#8217;s not much, but it&#8217;s working.  Besides, in the past, I&#8217;ve never had goals.  To have accomplished as little as I have already, it&#8217;s very motivating and exhilarating.</p>
<p>How are you doing with your goals?</p>
<p>Let me help you help yourself!</p>
