Part of being healthy is remaining healthy under pressure, and that I would imagine, is part of being resilient.
Part of being resilient is getting out of a funk, which I have been, and getting myself un-funked.
I think to stay healthy and to maintain wellness (mental, spiritual and physical, etcetera) I can keep doing the following and work on getting better at some of them:
* to experience minimal distress in day-to-day routine and activities
* feel in charge of my live
* capable of making choices based on experience and observation
* able to taking action about things that create anxiety
* explore and maintain good relationships with family and friends
* being in touch with myself and being able to express it
* take responsibility for the reactions to my actions
* am able to manage personal-growth well and genuinely
* create healthy lifestyle habits
* turn negative experiences into learning opportunities
* to actively seek out and pursue positive exciting and enjoyable experiences.
AND ONE MORE that works for me:
* be silly (aka a goofball) every now and then.
The nice thing is, I am not at a point in my life where I just do those things. And I do not DISQUALIFY myself for gentle reminders.

Pump up the jam, pump it up, pump it up. I am so ready to lighten up…everything in moderation indeed, and really to me life is like an extended version of Laugh-In, pussywillows haven’t emerged but I think this goofball is about to bloom (hmmm, maybe not the best choice of words).

If it were me, Harlon, and I know it’s not, I might work this list from the bottom up. That way you can fight fire with fire, and greet the insanity of the every day with a heavy dose of I ain’t buyin’ it. (‘cuz I’m CRA-zeeee)
(How you like me now, funk!?)
(Funka-whaaaat?)
It’s only a thought, my friend. All things in moderation… 🙂
