I gained a few pounds during my stay in Seattle for my dissertation residency, but I know it'll come off in a couple of weeks. I'm not worried. In fact, I'm quite proud of myself for not going overly crazy (food-wise, I didn't say anything about mental-wise *wink* Lol) because trust me, I had plenty of opportunities to. On the plus side, I am certain most of this is water weight anyways.

Isn't it interesting how perspective can change everything? Recently, I was part of a Resiliency Training program sponsored by the University of Penn's applied psychology department where I learned that what we think becomes what we feel becomes how we behave becomes what we believe.

Think about that for a moment...what you think over and over again could turn into what you believe!

So next time you hear yourself thinking thoughts that you know aren't the best, just remember that you have control over your thoughts which can change the way you feel, behave, and what you believe. I walked away from this training feeling like I just had an epiphany. As rudimentary as this idea is, it's like a light bulb went off in my brain. I thought I'd pass it on in case anyone else could benefit from this.

I normally don't post two in one day, but then again, I'm not normal :)

There is a turnstile at the campus gym that I use my staff ID card for. It didn't work today for some reason, I think the strip is going bad.


I looked over at the lady by the front desk and she said "No worries, hun...I see you every day, you can go on through". Her last comment was "You are one of the most consistent people I have seen this summer".


I smiled and thanked her although I literally have no clue who she is. I'm sure she's been there every day, but there's so many people around that I tend to not pay attention to who I walk past. I guess you could say, I'm in my own little world on a mission.


It just goes to show you that you never know who is watching you, so stay consistent and determined! She has no idea, but she made my day! I'm glad my card didn't work.
