Sometimes it is so easy to slip back into some old habits that aren't always that good for keeping a positive mind. Whether it is a reaction to something that a person has said or done or a situation that is out of my control, I still find that I don't always handle things in the way I would like to. Then I have to remind myself that I am only human and that the first step to change is recognising my reactions.
I always find myself feeling a bit flat in winter, I really miss the hot days and warm nights. But instead of dwelling on things and wishing the winter months away I now look for fun things to do to stay warm and keep the negative cloud away!
I can't control the environment around me, I can only control myself and my actions. I am finding that although this looks good on paper that it is so much harder to live it in real life and instead of being so hard on myself when I fall over, I should be focusing on the fact that I pick myself back up and learn from my mistakes and move forward.
I think the airline industry might be onto something when they charge for excess baggage, I need to remember to leave my excess baggage behind because I always pay for it when I carry it around with me!
So today I am going to sit back and enjoy a nice cup of coffee and be grateful for my lovely friends and family and also bask in the glow of passing my first semester in my course.
