07 April 2008 - Day 15

Spending the day at home today with a sick child, I had high hopes of accomplishing a lot; maybe a little too much. But as life has taught me, I ain't settling for anything less than everything. I would much rather expect the best, than just settle for mediocre. So as my new philosophy, I was demanding nothing less than that. With a long list ahead of me, and progress appearing to be slow, I realized I better take a new approach. So as soon as I did just that, the results were dramatically different.

Instead of focusing on all I had to do, I took the focus away from me for a while, and things changed. Things turned around, attitudes improved, and we all accomplished more as a family. We all exercised at the same time, just not in the same place, giving each of us the freedom and space we needed.

This morning's meditation was changed slightly since Tyler had fallen asleep in my bed after taking his medicine. But it was a pleasant change. I was able to relax my mind relatively quickly and connect with nature first, which really seems to help me.

All in all, it was a great day. I am looking forward to tomorrow, with more improvements within every day.
