20 Things

Resiliency is the ability to bounce back from change and misfortune.  It's one of those survival of the fittest tools that determine whether we survive and prosper...or not.  Resilience determines which of our clients move on after their divorce in a positive manner, or spend the rest of their lives trapped in the conflicts of the past.  Which do you want to be - the latter or the former?  

If you're still reading, you probably feel that being miserable for the rest of your life is not a pleasant proposition.  Terrific!  Let's get to work.  You read yesterday a couple of the things we do here in the Trenches to recharge.  What do you do?  When was the last time you did something just for you?  Would you, if your very life depended on it?  Take a pencil and paper and start a list of things you enjoy doing.  They don't have to be things you've done recently, just things you enjoy. You can enjoy them because they're fun, because they give you a feeling of accomplishment when you do them.  Keep writing until you have 20 items on your list.  As you think of more, add them to the list.  Have your list?  Now pick someting and do it.  Go on.  You'll feel recharged and ready to face anything life throws at you downin the Trenches.
