Chuffed

I’m currently feeling
Chuffed.

My thoughts creating this feeling:
Our learners did really well in their first rounds ringing for Sunday service. It was their first time ringing unaided on 6 as well. It wasn’t perfectly struck but there were batches of good striking and they knew what to do to get right again. The afternoon’s peal was successful despite a number of people going wrong at times. The young ringer, who was ringing the method for the first time, did exceptionally well, only really going wrong when other people did and put him off. He was very solid. He said he felt sick afterwards so I’m glad we scored it. He has a bright ringing future ahead of him. I also managed to complete the wardrobe swap, so happy I have jumpers and thicker tshirts available now.

My extraordinary goal for the year is…
To be financially savvy again. Planning for early retirement by getting back on track with understanding my savings, investments and pensions.

What result will I produce this month?
I will start to spend a bit on christmas now, but only on things for other people.

My tasks for the day is…
Prep for tomorrow’s project board meeting and operational team meetings. Learners early practice this evening before main practice. Hopefully building on yesterday’s success. I have an open meeting today to talk about going live with the first clinics.

What thoughts are holding me back?
Only 1 week to go before we go live with the first clinics affected by scanned records. The specialty hasn’t really engaged much, so need to ramp that up with them. They won’t like it, but hard wick, we’re there now.

What thought will I practice instead?
We have a robust comms plan. If they don’t want to engage, hard luck, it’s not for the want of trying.

What can I remove, elevate, upgrade or add to my style to embody my future self?
Navy and white trousers, navy linen top. Gibraltar bracelet, One & Eight hoop necklace and earrings. Keeping navy as I still have navy nail varnish on from the dinner.

What can I remove, elevate, upgrade or add to align with my future self’s environment?
Tidy up the armchair, which has a tonne of clothes piled on it, that are clean and ironed, I just don’t have anywhere to put them. I can’t even remember what’s under there. Some of it could be put away for the winter.

What am I excited to practice and improve?
Reason. Calm.

My progress and my blessings
Feel quite chilled at the moment, so try not to let anything spoil that.

What do I declare myself to be today?
Reasonable.

What questions can I ask of myself today?
How to stay focussed at work? How to increase comms about project? How to enjoy practice this evening?

What words of encouragement, insight, wisdom or humour does my future self have for me today?
I have specific outputs required today. That should keep we focussed.
