Saying that this week has been hectic would be a huge understatement. Work has been busier than I can ever remember and very stressfull. But, if I accomplished one thing this week it was a big advancement in the attitude I have after a stressful day (or days) at work.
I’ve made the decision that I’m not going to have bad days anymore. I have to admit this sounds extremely weird but I was at the point where I was letting things that were in my life impact the rest of my life. This was affecting my time with my wife, the way I interacted with my co-workers, and my general attitude about everything. I know that there are going to be days that are going to try my patience, and to be honest I’ve had a few of those this week, but it is not worth letting my stress impact those around me.
Something that really impacts these thoughts is my impression on others when I let the things around me affect my attitude. When I’m stressed my ability to impact somebody’s life, in a good way, is severely influenced. I can’t let things affect how I interact with others because I was not put here to have a negative impact.
Just some thoughts generated by my week.

I think this is a good mentality to have…if only you could pass it on to me… :)
