Brave New Life

Day Forty-Four

I am rating myself a three today on the growth scale, which is an improvement on my week. I ate well today, listened to my book, and did more travel preparations. The best thing I did today was finally meet with our workplace career and life coach. It was weird to tell her about all of this self-motivated transformation journey I've been on as I haven't fully shared it with anyone but you anonymous people. It felt a bit too much like bragging for my liking, but she assured me that even if I only wanted to meet with her to keep myself accountable, she would be glad to help. It did feel really good to have someone be impressed with all this self-work, especially from someone that coaches others through such journeys and with my week being so downhill, I really needed the reinforcement and encouragement from someone I respect to pick myself back up again. 

I wish I could share some insights from the book I've been listening to, but it is turning out to be a very technical book rather than a coaching type of book. It is very interesting (once you get past that monotone voice) if you are interested in psychology and how emotional intelligence plays a role on human behavior, but I can't recommend it as a self-improvement book at this point. 

Til tomorrow my brave comrades,
