Master Key Experience Week 8 – Just Another Day

So I was thinking I was going to write about what a challenge giving up TV was…but so far, it really hasn’t been a challenge.  I’ve added a little more time on the treadmill, a little time in the sauna, and some extra time listening to my MKE recording.  What I’ve come to learn is that unless there’s something specific I want to see, television is like background noise to me.  It’s not really something I’m actively involved in – most of the time – but I appreciate it being there while I’m cooking or cleaning or whatever.

On the other hand, this 7-day mental challenge is keeping me on my toes.  I’ve learned that children are the universe’s way of saying, “You think you’re in control…think again.”  I can’t say it’s been a week of drama, but a few challenges have been sprinkled in there just to test my ability to use the Law of Substitution.   Gained four pounds in one day…you know it’s just water retention from your heavy lifting day.  Think how much stronger you’re getting and how far you’ve come.  Found out that the client of a client has re-evaluated their brand and decided to choose fresh talent for both their male and female voices.  You know how much you’d rather be voicing imaging anyway.  Start figuring out a way to gain a few more stations.

That’s pretty much how my week went.  I think I actually was able to turn myself around in 7 seconds or less without a blowup or thoughts that just kept lingering forever.  Does that mean I’ve mastered it?  Not even close.  I’m willing to say I’m getting better, but election day is behind us and the holidays are still hanging out there.  The holidays…that will be the true test.  Think good thoughts.
