End of Day (1/14)


Feelings Today:

energetic, hopeful, aware, grateful



Issues:

I am traveling for business at a conference in Miami. This creates several issues for me: (i) overcoming my introvert tendencies, (ii) staying focused on business, and (iii) combating increased temptations to act out. So far, so good.


Needs:

I need to continue to do the little things that help keep me sober: make phone calls, pray, exercise. This trip has been a blessing so far. I am grateful for the fellowship of other addicts that I get by making phone calls.


The trip started with one major struggle: sleep. I got very little sleep the first night I was here. Yesterday I went to the local Walgreens and purchased a small fan. Running this fan last night gave me enough "white noise" to relax and I slep much better. I am grateful for that.

Today has been an excellent day business-wise. I had an opportunity to meet with some prospective clients and share our vision for 2008. That was good.

Tomorrow the pressure is really on. I will be the featured lunch speaker for an audience of nearly 200 top sales people. I've got my fingers crossed!
