The World Isn’t Cheating Me Out of Things

I’m in Colorado and scheduled this post to go off while I’m gone, so as to keep my content going on this blog. So I won’t be dropping Entrecards either for a week, sorry about that!

Anyway, I woke up this morning, hating to have to wake up, thinking what is going on with me and why do I get to feeling miserable when most of the things in my life are good.

Why can’t I stop eating… why do I think I don’t get enough sleep, enough down time, enough… whatever. I often think that I just don’t get enough of things, food is one of them. And so I over eat.

And I sat there and thought really, the world is apathetic. The universe doesn’t care much about me. The food sits on the shelves, or on the plate, and doesn’t taunt me. I do it to myself.

I’m always trying to get five more minutes of sleep… that ends up at a half hour or so. I resent that I have to work, and not get to do what I want to do.

So I have to change my attitude. The world is not cheating me out of things. I am doing it to myself. I control most of my own world. I control all of my own thoughts and my own actions. I can, for the most part, have what I want if I work for it. That’s the great thing about our country, the USA. I am limited only by myself and the patterns that were drilled into me that are no longer working, and I need to change.

This is something I need to spend more time thinking about, too.

On this day..

    Now if I can just get my mother to figure this out I’ll be okay!

    It’s hard to regain control of your own life, esp while dealing with anxiety. But the rewards are awesome!
