There.  I wrote out my complete routine.  And today, I did every part, with the exception of possibly having missed my shoulder wheels, so I'll do a set now.

(did 'em)

It's not that I do them in order.  It's that I do them.

This seems like simplistic stuff.  I KNOW this all.  But I'm trying to discipline myself into DOING  this stuff.  It takes - perhaps & sometimes - writing it down here to get clear.

And, I have the Ancel N. Taylor curse of "do everything twice."  He didn't say "I" had to do everything twice, but he said HE had to, implying that I would have to 2, too.

And, I have found that it's not always only 2..... sometimes I have to do 20 to drill the idea in.  I'm easily distracted by stuff, thoughts, ideas, etc.  They creep in so readily.  I'm not sure that's all bad.  But creep they do.

And so, I repeat my affirmations daily, and 10 times typed, followed by 10 times spoken.

It's a lot of business.... but I think it's helping me, in general.  I seem to have clearer thoughts, and I'm remembering to do things BEFORE they need to be done, rather than "catching up."

Hold the needle down.  It will likely scratch the sound of the vinyl record, but it will be better than skipping whole phrases, etc., once the "holding down" process is finished.

This is a theme in my life.  I've had to "hold" to things, in spite of outside influences.

BTW, is it rational for me to say to myself things like, "This life sucks.  Just let me do this.  Why is everything failing?  Technology should WORK - not fail."  etc.  I'm somehow lamenting that the fails are happening so often, and to me.  WHY?

I could let them pass, and not become upset.  But they continue to happen every day.

And then I wonder if the frequency is similar to the frequency experienced by other people.

And then I wonder if I let them pass (i.e., don't get so upset about them), would they actually decrease in frequency?  Or continue to occur at the same frequency?

WHO KNOWS??  No one is talking to me, but myself.  I have some answers to my daily dilemmas.  But let's see how today goes.  Maybe it'll REALLY get better today.
