JOT Day 52 - Yes, this includes everything

Since I moved to a new city, I've been putting off finding a new doctor because I just didn't want to.

I loved the one I had, and I had no variable reducing criteria for eliminating the thousands of practitioners in the area in order to find the one I wanted, and so I just let the endeavor simmer   back burner.

Until last week.

Then suddenly it all just sort of came together. I started looking online and I don't even remember what the search word I used was, but there, on the screen was a family practice clinic that employed--midwives? Really??

How progressive.

And it's in the part of town I want to live in next.  What the hell.

I'll see if they take new patients.

Yes?

When might the first available appointment be?

Tomorrow?

Really?

Um, OK.

Turns out I LOVED the place.

No one was in a hurry to see 120 patients that day. My questions and answers to theirs were attentatively listened to. I don't think I've ever had such a pleasant experience in a medical provider's office.

Another example of not taking action until one is lined up with it.

Don't even bother wasting your time and energy on something that will fail until you are lined up with it.

Yes, this includes everything.

JOT Day 51 - Spiders aren't just for breakfast anymore Since I completed my homepage and my first tier 2 page on my new site, I could submit them today to Google, Yahoo and Bing search engines through my SBI account, and now the spiders can start doing their thing. This is where I need to remember not to focus on the numbers. Just like with paying attention the stock market fluctuations every day, or hopping on the scale every morning, obsessing on minute web traffic movement will drive you insane. It's the babysteps of the present economic system, or your body's ability to metabolize energy and use it up as fuel, or usage on the net over time that wins. I'm also noticing more new thoughts going through my head that I didn't have access to before, meaning they would have felt preposterous. But now that I've practiced thinking more and more thoughts in their essence range, i.e. hopeful and eager rather than doubtful and brooding, my neuropathways are branching out in these new ruts and more thoughts like them can show up because of this mind power flypaper. It's exciting and empowering and full of possibilities all that rah-rah stuff, but the bottom line is, I feel great. I'm experiencing steady and increasing relief from the self-talk loops that have played in my mind for decades and are now just as steadily losing their foothold. I've got relief from what used to keep me up at night. I've stopped wasting my time and energy and finally found the solutions I was looking for. I focus on what works and I see real, lasting results that build over time. And that is one big bag of chips.

JOT Day 53 - Today I was the object of a photoshoot Today I was the object of a photoshoot. It was so much fun! Kudos to Josh for making it so. I can't wait to see the results! And I found a look and feelf or my webiste that just. rocks. my world. And a wonderful beginning to my right-brain biz plan--all the marketing/right/people/social media aritcles that I've printed over the last few years are makingtheir way into this artist's notebook document. So. much. fun. Sonoma Coast Pinot noir rocks. And so does my sweetie.
