thank you to sste...

[theriviera]

for putting the thought out there about how it is flawed to look at in the past "because what people generally want is all the good things about their current situation PLUS all the good things about the road not taken. And none of the downside from either"

i'm in a pretty frustrating situation at work and this line of thinking has helped me reframe it and have a better attitude. it's really true - you can't have just upside/upside!

so thanks sste. your wise thinking has had a positive impact on my life :bowdown: you rock!

Oh goodness, thanks. So nice to hear! This has made my day. And I will be directing my DH to this post the this next time he teases me about time spent on the internet . . . :)

Totally true about the outlook on your current path.

sste is my sage. :)


:yeahthat: She helped me so much in one thread that I actually asked her if she was a therapist. She said no. I can't remember what she does, but I think she's an atty...

I forgot to comment on that post but it was DEAD on!

[elbenn]

Yes, sste is awesome and wise. I thought when she posted what you quoted that it was very wise.

[DrSally]

I missed the referenced post, but very wise advice, indeed!

sste does rock. I remind myself of this philosophy every now and then. Its so helpful.

[MamaMolly]

So wise! I'm one of those indecisive people and second guess myself all the time. I'm going to try and keep this in mind when I start in on myself.

I just basically asked sste to be my therapist in another thread, so I'm certainly on board!
