The joys of having a goal
I have had goals before which have not worked out.
I have wanted to plan a Remuera Finest Business Awards for one. Remuera is Auckland's swishiest suburb and I had it in my mind to run an awards night based on popular vote. I might have beeen able to pull it off if i had afriend to help me but i didnt. I had a guest speaker lined up and a venue but as the time got closer I came down off my manic high and realised I didnt want to carry on and that it was just a pipe dream. CRASH!
What else? I wanted to go to England to work in a home care agency. I wanted to travel to Europe on a cargo ship, i bought a car neither Bryan nor I could drive, no doubt others but mercifully forgotten off the top of my head! Organise a surprise party for Bryan (he would have hated it!)
But this goal of travelling round the USA is doable especially as I dont see myself doing it until sept / oct 2012. I have the money amazingly, and this period of time wiil let me plan and grow into it.
It makes me feel good about myslef to have this goal. I think everyone who suffers from depression would benefit from a treat to look forward to.
What else/ Meeting Suzanne for coffee today. i envied her a wee bit before but now her relationship is over and she hasnt got a job I dont. Rather be me than anyone else.
I love DS. I go online as soon as I wake up. Doing my journal helps me focus my thoughts. I am addicted but its a good addiction like walking Arnie round the block or working hard at my job.
Time to go say hallo to ivan.
Looking forward to a good day!
