“Actions, thoughts and feelings are inter-related. Change one and the others change automatically.”

You made me feel awesome with that quote, thus improving my thoughts, and inspired me to take the action by commenting on this very post.

Thanks!

I am so.
Or…perhaps you mean Patty N?

Patty – when I read your comment, I thought, “Joe gets to enjoy it more because I won’t be here bitching and moaning all the time.” And Joe interpreted it as you suggesting that he would be a “kept man.” (He also liked the idea, not sure if that’s good or bad!)

Oh, boy! What a great Third Alternative story, Patty.

Joe gets to do what he’s enjoying doing, and he gets to enjoy it even more with your new pleasure in it, even if you will be there less often now.

You get to do what you enjoy doing and, I’m sure, build a fantastic speaking career.

And your new career will allow you and Joe to take plenty of happy vacations together over many, many years.

That is so win-win. I love it!

Merri – way to go with doing something…it’s so easy to get trapped in the over-thinking

Karen – looking forward to seeing you!

Darryl – thanks for the kind comments. I will be in touch when I get to Victoria…

Hope to hear from you soon..
even a wave across the ditch works.

Your writing is profound… wonder what your speeches and comedy will be like now!

I don’t know if you got my email, GB, (it got bounced back to me a few times), but I’m glad you’re coming home – even if “home” is across the water from here. I’m glad you’re doing what makes you happy. Call me as soon as you’re back.

Patty, I am so proud of you! It must have been tremendously difficult to make the decision, but it sounds like having made it makes your living there much better for the remainder of your time in Mexico.

I’m also glad that Joe can stay and live out his adventure as well. What a great win-win third alternative for you guys. Hooray for Patty Newbold’s teachings!

Thanks for being so open and honest on your blog Patty!
I’m in the same situation (I call it “I think I think too much!”) and after reading this I am going to DO something instead! Thanks!
