Tomorrow I am going to show my proposal to my boss. I know that she is not one to read much and with my brief proposal, I would have quite a bit to explain.. which I don't mind of course. Well I did tell another of my manager about it and I found her reaction odd and kinda unsupportive. I have to say I was kinda affected at first... but thank GOD I have many supportive colleagues around me to bolster me. This is just the beginning and I guess I have to learn to take such wet blankets in my stride... Luckily, she is not the ultimate decision-maker.
I'll keep in mind what was said about people being desperate to guard their turfs. Well, I'll guard mine too...
In any case, I see a need to apply some MST on myself as for the past few days I can hear my inner-voice, and alot of it is negative :-P Well, let me go do some cognitive restructuring of my own.
As we are on the topic of mental skills, here's one..
The mind is a dangerous weapon, even to
the possessor, if he knows
not discreetly how to use it.
Michel de Montaigne
