Well, finally chiming in to this great thread.

Today I began 180ing when I thought, "why am I always wondering when my sitch is going to stop making my mind stay negative so much as in, 'When will this finally go away?'" (Passive)

Instead, I started countering every (well, most) negative automatic thought with its positive polar opposite. (Active).

I've been "waiting" for this to "go away" for so long. Today I started - ever so slightly - chasing it away. Begone!

Wish me luck, here. I'm attempting to buck what has become this year a deeply ingrained habit!

This is a great 180. I know with absolute certainty that posting on other peoples threads has helped me. It clarifies everything.

My weekend GAL activities:

Tonight dinner with my sister and our monthly "cupcakes and wine" night with the girls.

Saturday: haircut & color in the afternoon and a dinner/cocktail party in the evening. My friends just remodeled their loft, the party should be fun!

Sunday: laundry, cleaning, studying, working and Superbowl with neighbors.

My 180's: turned OFF phone for the rest of the day. I need some peace and quiet and my phone rings non-stop.
