The 10 Day Mental Diet Challenge – Day 9
Day 9 of the mental diet challenge. Total fail. This morning I read my email, to discover something that totally sends me over the edge. Now, granted, I wasn’t exactly mindful of my state at the time, and when I did become aware of it, I changed it. But none the less, this negativity lasted …
