I have started to try to discipline myself because I have let myself get really bad about using my will-power to push myself to do things.

I listened to a sport psychologist on TV the other day. He was talking about how he trained top athletes to use visualization and self-hypnosis to acheive their goal of winning a race, game or putting down the perfect performance to win a gold medal in the Olympics.

I have come to realize that there are certain words or phrases if you will, that you do not say to me when you want me to do something. Unless, you are my boss or are my doctor, because these words or phrases are guaranteed to have the totally opposite effect.

I had several invitations to Christmas Day dinner(one of which I had even accepted), when I was visiting with my Mother, and my older sister came to check on my Mother before Sis went to bed as she was working the next day. She mentioned that they were have a family supper on Friday( they are not religious, so they do not do  Christmas dinner).

I was thinking earlier about how much better I feel these days. I believe it is due to a number of factors. One is that starting in late 2005 or early 2006, I started on to the combined Bach Flower Remedy drops that Tenaj and I decided I needed for the feelings/issues that I was experiencing at that time.
