It carries just the right words, and my brain interprets the connotations in just the way right way.  Every once in awhile, I&#8217;m able to discover one of these &#8220;personalized power phrases&#8221; (or whatever you want to call them).  It usually involves me ending a mental loop.  A reliance that I plan to break, as I just need 15 minutes of complete focus and silence to prevent myself from running around like a chicken with my head cut off. I need some time outside of my environment.<\/p>\n<p>Blog:  This is my psychological evaluation.  No doctor will be able to find the true secrets in your mind as it&#8217;s difficult enough for us to do it, ourselves.  A doctor would require 100% cooperation of the patient in order to be successful and there are so very few of us are able to comply 100%.<\/p>\n<p>So now starts the blogging.  I&#8217;m currently using my underused tool of speech recognition*.  A tool which I plan to soon purchase.  I am seated comfortably at home, alone.  Nothing to distract me.  No one to distract.<\/p>\n<p>I should first line out my plan, my &#8220;dream schedule&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>6 a.m. The CD alarm clock starts.  Luckily, I am already awake and am able to turn it off before it wakes up somebody else.<br \/>\n6:15 a.m. I&#8217;m finishing my morning warm-up and putting oatmeal into water which is already boiling.<br \/>\n6:30 a.m. I&#8217;m out of the shower and eating my oatmeal with flaxseed, cinnamon, raisins &amp; molasses (or brown sugar).<br \/>\n7:00 a.m. I am on my way to the bus stop with a magazine for the bus ride.<br \/>\n8 a.m. At the studio, I check and respond to e-mails. Based on all this information I quickly to plan my day, which is recorded (somewhere consistent).<br \/>\n10:00 a.m. 15 minute break.  I must get away from the desk by either doodling by a window, going to the gym or going outside to play.<br \/>\n12:30 p.m. Cook\/reheat meal after walk outside.<br \/>\n4:20 p.m. DS time or semi-supine\/nap.<br \/>\n6:30 p.m. Waiting at the bus stop waiting to head home<\/p>\n<p>This would be the schedule I would like to have for four out of the five days.  On the fifth day of my &#8220;five-day workweek&#8221;I will be available remotely via a VPN e-mail and\/or telephone.  If an employer is unable to do that schedule form he I must insist that I give me a reason that makes sense, because for me to schedule makes sense and has been proven to work.<\/p>\n<p>7 p.m. I should already be thinking about what I&#8217;m going to be making for dinner, and lunch the next day.  Dinner can be simple,  light and quick. Just stirfry vegetables which are lightly spiced.<br \/>\n7:45 p.m. After working out I&#8217;m getting rolling on dinner.<\/p>\n<p>At least three days a week I need to stay away from the computer in the evenings, so says doctor Me.<\/p>\n<p>11:00 p.m. I better be making my way towards the bedroom, after cleaning up my desk, picking up my miscellaneous shit &amp; then brushing my teeth.<br \/>\n11:15 p.m. Collect thoughts at the end of the day.  Spend quiet time with my journal and my mind.<br \/>\n11:30 p.m. falling asleep<\/p>\n<p>*Dragon naturally speaking is an incredible speech recognition program.
