Early post...check me out!
Again, its a day that is more of the same, applying for more jobs, more volunteering placements all whilst trying to stop my dog from licking my new cat to death. Its hard for me to tell him off because he is trying to be friendly, just a little too eager!
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about positive thinking and how life affects us. The saying that I live by is ‘Regression to the mean’. It basically means that life cant be always good or always bad, it has to make its way back to the middle. I first heard this watching Teen Wolf! Lol!
This helps me everyday, whenever I am feeling low or my job is getting me down or the tinder guy I really liked did match me back. (Happens way too often for my liking ha!) I remember that life needs to go back to the baseline. That’s where I am now, it isn't really bad - that was 6 months ago when I was working in a hellhole doing 70hrs a week with no breaks - and it’s not really good - that was 6 weeks ago when I was travelling Europe and meeting amazing people and seeing incredible things.
So now i’m in the middle, the only way is up. Apply for jobs and placements to get my foot in the door. Keep swiping right, someone will like me soon enough right?! Maybe I should take away the 3 pictures of my cats? I’m joking obviously! I’ve got the token club picture so people think i’m outgoing, the profile picture when I try to look pretty and the picture with me in front of a famous landmark so they think I travel. I’m doing Tinder how its apparently supposed to be done!
Anyway, I digressed, again. My brain just goes off on so many tangents! So positive thinking. You just got to look at the big picture and keep taking, whenever I feel down I go for a long walk and talk out my feelings with a good, non judgemental friend. I wont always be in the middle. Hopefully I will have good news to share soon!
