Today's prompt is borrowed from Gretchen Rubin's Happiness Project.
Identifythe problem. That is, when you’re annoyed,angered, or frustrated, ask yourself, “What exactly is theproblem here?”
Today, take a few minutes to ponder that one little, nagging issuethat, if solved or eliminated, would make your life better. Perhaps, getting upfive minutes earlier would make your life easier. Maybe smiling at that onecoworker that drives you crazy would ease the tension. What small change inyour life would or could make a big difference?
LOL, I could write a whole essay on this subject, but it would only give me an opportunity to vent and bore the pants of my readers, so I will refrain. There is absolutely, without a shadow of a doubt a nagging issue that once resolved will make my life unbelievably different. Whether it would be better is questionable, but certainly issues would be resolved. Often having an answer to a problem, even if the outcome is not what you would wish for is preferable to having the unanswered question constantly hanging over your head, uncertain as to which way the pendulum will fall.
In other news though, I intend in 2012 to be someone who gets things done. I already have a list as long your arm of things waiting for my attention, so I get the feeling that finding spare time for other interests might be an issue for next year! Not finishing things is certainly something that annoys me immensely so I intend to stop this being an issue for me, wish me luck!
