Sometimes I notice improvements
These improvements can be subtle. Today, I didn't forecast conflict and lost time as much as I usually do, and when I did the thoughts were less upsetting. It feels as these thoughts have lost influence over my mood, at least for today. The thoughts seemed the same but the impact was definitely less. The big thing for me was that I recognized the thoughts and noted the lessened impact. I know these thoughts are distortions and not destiny. I think I'm recognizing this on a deeper level. Let's see if this continues. I'm working the app hard these days, making sure I take the time for a good review of my experience and a few entries in the morning, at lunch, and in the evening. Good stuff.
