    S02E28 The Film Crew Inside Your Head

    There is a film crew inside my head that I can blame things on. Ha! The writer is the one that has the ideal plan for my life.  He creates goals and new years resolutions and ambitions for me.  The director calls the shots of what I actually try to do, she dictates how I should do things.  The combination of the direction and the cast's interpretation is what actually gets out into the real world.  There are different cast members that have a potential for tension in their relationships.  You can never make all of them happy and sometimes one of them upstages the others.  Another important crew member is the PA who is the hinge between having the people, props and etc that you need and not having what you need to make the shot.  Finally we have the editor who frames your perception of what actually happened or is happening.  The editor provides the scenes that your director has to work with when making future decisions to make sure you have a full and happy life.

    S02E27 Appreciation and Rhythm: Keys to Happiness

    Two key factors to my happiness are appreciation and rhythm. No matter what we have, what kind of lifestyle we’re living and how much money we make there is one constant that affects our happiness; that is our appreciation of what we have. This is really the core of the “it could be worse” mentality. Acknowledging how things could be worse makes you look at your situation and say “phew, thank God!” The second key is creating a rhythm to your day. Not just any rhythm, but a routine that starts your week or day off on the best note possible. This ensures that even if your week or day gradually gets worse, because you started it off strong, you still end it better than if you started your day with a negative mindset. The daily/weekly routine also gives us something to fall back to when the stress, fatigue or excitement is overpowering and it is difficult to get into the normal groove.
