RE: 31st Newsletter
Today's thought from Hazelden is:
The purpose of life is not to get rid of the butterflies in your stomach, but to make them fly in formation.

Did you know that your anxiety could help you at work? Anxieties are a signal; they are a warning system within us saying "Halt!" "Look!" "Listen!" Our anxieties are either honest fears or old, familiar feelings we have carried irrationally from our past. If our anxieties come from legitimate fears, we can face them honestly and move beyond them.
I like to think of anxiety as lying at the threshold of change. Often we feel anxiety when we are entering a new position, a new workplace, or a new experience. These anxieties are natural; they are telling us that we care about our performance. However, when we carry anxieties from our past, such as those that come from old stories of self-doubt, we face a challenge of another kind. We must trace the history of these anxieties and find the primary sources. These anxieties often hover about, leading us to a dead end. We can move through these anxieties by respecting and working on them instead of burying them. Otherwise, they will continue to haunt us.
Just for today, I will listen to my anxious feelings and ask myself whether they are legitimate anxieties from the present or hovering haunts that have been hiding in my closet.

This is a unique personality test. There are only 4 questions but the results are very interesting. I was kind of shocked by what some of my answers meant. Be honest and honor what pops into your mind when the questions present themselves.

Funny Things To Do in An Elevator
1) Make race car noises when anyone gets on or off.
2) Grimace painfully while smacking your forehead and muttering: "Shut up, dammit, all of you just shut UP!"
3) On a long ride, sway side to side at the natural frequency of the elevator.
4) Crack open your briefcase or purse, and while peering inside ask: "Got enough air in there?"
5) Offer name tags to everyone getting on the elevator. Wear yours upside down.
6) Stand silent and motionless in the corner, facing the wall, without getting off.
7) Greet everyone getting on the elevator with a warm handshake and ask them to call you Admiral.
8) On the highest floor, hold the door open and demand that it stay open until you hear the penny you dropped down the shaft go "plink" at the bottom.
9) Do Tai Chi exercises.
10) Frown and mutter "gotta go, gotta go" then sigh and say "oops!"
