New Approach

I’ve repeatedly listened to parts of an audio book each night before falling asleep, it has been extremely interesting so far and I can’t seem to get it out of my mind since I’m thinking about its message all day long. I’m preparing today for an interview tomorrow morning at 09.00, who would’ve thought people would be ready for an interview first thing on Monday morning?

I thought they’d need to exchange weekend experiences first with their morning coffee? Not that I mind but 09.00 on a Monday morning seems strange to me. Anyway: this interview is part of the ‘new’ plan. The book is teaching me to have a different approach in life, to make things happen, to create your life the way you want it… I know… it all sounds too ‘new age’…

But it isn’t really, it’s based on logic, psychology and scientifically proven facts and the things that are said actually do make sense. So today I’m focusing on the new approach and in a few minutes after I’ve finished this post I will start to write down my plan… I have to admit it’s kinda exciting and scary in a way because you’ll have to face your ‘demons’ big time.

A lot became clear to me while listening to the book and I’m determined to try this new approach and make my quest work for me. It’s going to be an interesting journey from here and it will definitely show me some odd angles, it already has but they finally start to make sense and I can finally see why I made certain choices in the past or why I didn’t.

I no longer will be able to procrastinate or look for reasons why I believe I can’t do certain things, coz I can(!) it ‘just’ takes a new way of thinking… It already scares the hell out of me but that’s just another excuse to procrastinate *hehe*. Oh yes your mind is very good at tricking you right back into your easy comfort zone so you won’t have to face the issues…

Off now to prepare myself *wink*

Update Monday 15:18:56: the interview went really well but the funny bit was that both people opposite of me complained about the fact that they had to interview someone at 09.00 on a Monday morning and even mentioned the fact that that was a first to them *LOL* To me as well btw. I’m struggling with the plan, perhaps I’ll write more about this later… I need to answer certain questions that make me think… Deeper than usal and that is already pretty deep *wink*.

Knitting Fever

I don’t know what’s ‘wrong’ with me but I have been having a serious knitting fever for days now… I’ve had this particular design in my head of a patchwork cardigan coat with a nice large hoodie so I went to a local shop and bought all sorts of black and grey shades of yarn *so cheap!* and dug through drawers to look for remnant yarn that has been lying there for ages waiting for me to use for my cardigan. It’s gonna look so cool!

Every evening I watch the same show on T.V. and perhaps a movie if anything good is on, but I always feel like it’s a waste of time somehow to just sit there: I know it must sound insane but I feel I could make myself useful. So while I was watching last week, the urge to do so became stronger and the next day I got out and bought all sorts of different yarn to turn into a super dooper nice and warm patchwork cardigan coat :)

It’s extremely relaxing to do: it almost gets me into this meditational state. I’m eager to finish the cardigan so I can wear it asap now that the temperature outside seems about right *hehe* and the cold weather has come to visit… In the meantime when I can control the fever I’m also working on a presentation website: a design for a potential client…
