Preventive maintenance
Posted: Tue Jan 26, 2010 1:50 pm
I don't know , it seems like everyone I am suggesting these steps to and them going through it , are getting better and better , I'm going "Wait a minute , why don't I try the same myself !!"
There is or are any major "issues" that I am presently having to deal with that may need immediate attention , but , however , there are a whole bunch of pressing situations that are adding up , and am finding myself more and more on the "snappy" or "quick-on-the-trigger" side of things lately . So , like the title suggests , I thought taking preventive measures would be wise before the possibility of a blow-out and/or if there is one coming . Pre - vent right ?
Taking stock , do inventory , see what's up . Uncover , Discover and Discard , is what I got the last time I went through those steps , and I am not one bit ashamed , embarrassed or otherwise having to go through them again , in fact , I do and suggest to everyone I work with through my other 12th step program to go through them on an annual or semi-annual basis , just to keep ourselves in check .
So . Here I am .
The major factor that prompted me to decide is the fact that , a certain reprimand I received at work , though not my fault at all and the reasons of which is nothing but mere administrative mumbo-jumbo and had absolutely nothing to do with actions I took (my part) , but nevertheless , lately I'm finding myself more and more preoccupied with the instance , to the point where I pulled the file of the previous offers I had received in regards to my present occupation , and actually made the call to two of them . Then again I got to thinking "Why am I doing this ? There's nothing wrong with where you are , there's nothing they or you did that was out of whack , why are you retaliating ? "
Well , couple those thoughts and the applications of which on two other situations that are "minor" in nature , but I also know all too well , many "minors" become one big "major" if they keep adding up and not tended to promptly . So , onward I go , putting one foot in front of the other , and see what happens .
Don't know if I am to post on a daily basis or not , but today I did , and its a one day at a time thing anyway , tomorrow will take care of itself . Besides , it is my hope that others will see what I am doing and maybe get them encouraged as well .
In Christ , our Lord
