Dear diary
I check for incoming fund in my bank account today.
What was so interesting and strange to me was my thought and feeling today vs the last time.
The last time I received a thousand dollar, I thought and felt that the money I had was not enough, and wishes for more so I gamble for more money in the end and lost everything.
My situation still remain the same today but when I check and saw a smaller sum this time (880 dollars), I actually thought and felt the money was just nice and enough.
It was sufficient and all will be fine over time. I just need to stay calm, be still, do nothing and wait patiently.
13 days has passed since I started work as a security guard and every day was challenging and hard so far, I had to practice saying NO to my thoughts and feelings and do what I dislike the most. I don’t feel like going to work every day but I still had to go to work.
I was practicing to say “NO” to do what I want immediately and practice doing what I needed the most instead.
