Friday

The week started off well. I got my window fixed in my jeep. I was feeling good about my week. Then someone slammed into my jeep while it was parked. I was in agony. I was very depressed for a day and a half. I knew if I keep going forward I would break out of it. I need to work on not taking things so seriously and not to blow things out of preportion. I moved on. Thursday I went to the escape room. That was fun. If you don't know what that is you need to google it. I grinded a whole bunch doing classes and presentations. Before going to bed I watched Jim Rohn videos to really learn the ins and out of some business techniques.

Yesterday was a fun day. My friend Kurtis and Keith and I went out to black dog to hang out. We talked about cars and success. I talked about how my new job has me public speeking more. It was a good roundtable discussion. Keith is a beast at coding as is Kurtis. We talked and I was happy.

The Royals have been sluggish and just waiting for the playoffs. Sporting KC was trending downward but had a nice victory last friday. Chiefs had a bad bad loss on Thursday, but they seem to have a good team. MWSU has been doing alright.

Grant at work gave me some feedback today. Overall it was mostly positive. I am glad I did stand-up comedy and I know how people react when I public speak. There are some in-depth things that happen that I already know from doing comedy that come into play when public speaking and it is nice to already have the knowledge in my brain of what happens when you say this or when a person says that. I have been diciplined when it comes to saving for my 401K. My sister and her BF seem to be doing well. We all do our best to work out and put in hard work. My parents are doing well and My dad and I and uncle are in a bowling league. The book "The inner game of tennis" teaches me alot about the mental aspect of sports and bowling is no different. I get going bad in bowling and I have to slow down and just focus on slowing the game or my mind down. Breath Relax and Trust.

Saturday

This week was a challenge. My jeep got broken into again for the second time. My meds were stolen along with my Royals bag. It was a challenge and exercise in HOLDING YOUR HEAD UP AND MOVE ON. Pray for those who have to steal and be jerks. They have a worse life than I do. Cultivate your message of strength and hope so you can teach others have to be strong. People steal know it is wrong. You know in your heart is wrong. The people who steal live a lie and one day they will face that fact. When they do it will be painful.

Saturday

Saturday I woke up and went for a walk. I then went to Buffalo Wild Wings to watch KU. They are really terrible at football. I have some friends that work at Buffalo Wild Wings here in Lawrence which has made life a bit easier for me. This was a very long week for me. I didn't get much rest last weekend because I was preparing for my interview on Monday. The interview was a struggle. I need to have examples of me correcting people if they mess up or examples of me coaching people. I will know that for interviews coming up. Awhile back I was accepted for an Training Intern. It was the first time that my skills of speaking in public and my coaching skills were put on display. I was grateful for the time not taking calls and the time spent with the awesome trainers I was put around. We have several guys that are amazing at their jobs and the amount of time spent training people and the human touch is very humbling and nice to see. I have been going to a couple AA meetings a week along with meeting with my sponsor once a week. It is a pain in the butt but it provides me strength and coaching for everyday life. I have been putting aside money in my 401k which is tough but I know it is the right thing to do if I want money later in life. Overall I have been pretty happy especially when I actually got to talk in front of people. Motivation and speaking in front of people are right in my wheel house and for along time I never thought I was going to do what I actually like to do. I still love to really help people wherever I am at. Long hours in AA and long hours in doctors offices have got my anxiety, frustration, and general anger down to the point where I can go to work and have fun and enjoy being with my co-workers again. My sister and ben have put a bit of fire into to work out more. They have been reading books and getting after it on the treadmill. They read the right books and the have skills to do whatever they want. My friend Adam switched jobs and I am sure he will do well at his new job. He is an amazing worker that is always hungry to work and do well.
