So I was having a major stress attack headache today at work. I had two HUGE projects to get out the door, I had some very uncooperative third parties and could not get my my mind to focus enough past the pain.Normally, I would take my new found wonder drug, Advil LiquiGels, but at work, we only have Tylenol Extra Strength and very weak generic Ibuprofen. I took the Tylenol and it did little to nothing, as is typical, since Tylenol has not done anything fr me in years -- even Canadian Tylenol!
But my boss came back from his meeting today and gave me one of my projects, said I did a great job, and my headache started to ease up. Who knew positive reinforcement could help so much.
He then told me that the Certified Professional Guardian Board was going to recommend me to the Washington Supreme Court for certification, and my headache eased up a little more. Who knew acceptance and validation could help so much.
I never thought I was the type to need the warm and fuzzy stuff...but then again, I never thought "Little, yellow, different, better." was a slogan that couldn't miss.
