Friday

Today I decide to be wealthy.

I wrote an update/holiday note to my counselor at Worksource, letting her know what was going on.
  
I read the book "The 5 lessons A Millionaire Taught Me About Life and Wealth,"  is is about changing one's attitude through  positive affirmation. "I decide to be wealthy."  It also has lessons on compound interests, and making money on one's time off. which the author did in real life, and now has the "Christmas Box" series of books, among other things, and I appreciate that Evans didn't go the motivational speaker money route, but actually produced products that people enjoy using.   It's a short read, and I'm trying it out and blogging about it, but part of the back of my head has the Saturday Night Live skits about positive affirmations.

She thanked me for the update, no comment on the book report, and offered hers and Worksource's services again.

I spent most of the day writing three articles for the neighborhood newsletter, including researching on the net and calling a couple of the places for info.  One of them (the bus system) had inaccurate information on their websites, so they're going to get it corrected now that we've discussed it.  I also went shopping with my youngest daughter, and talked to my mom.  My sister-in-law, whose baby isn't even two years old yet, may have cancer.
I stayed up too late last night, and it was just stupid stuff, going over and over the same sites, like some sort of addiction or "I don't wanna go to bed."  I did come up with the topics and did some research on them.  Have to get more done tomorrow.

Again, procrastination is not a habit to build wealth.  I should have had these articles done Thanksgiving week, and I still have three job applications to find and fill out.  Unemployment benefits have been extended again, but I still need to find a job, so that that news is something that's mildly interesting, instead of being some thing to worry over.

Today I decide to be wealthy.
