Now put it into action.

As clichéd as it sounds. You are responsible for your own happiness. Don't focus on the things that you no longer have (this is fruitless). Focus on the things that you have and you can control. Start by writing down a list of all the things in your life you are grateful for - you've got part of the list in your last posting.

- I am grateful for D4. I will try and be the best dad I can for her. I will do this by being present when we are together.
- I am grateful that I am fit and healthy. I will build on this by going to the gym/running x times a week
- I am grateful that I have a job I enjoy and where I am appreciated. I will make an effort to see what opportunities/training is on offer and make sure they know I am interested.

and lastly ... as is repeated on this board many times: TIME IS YOUR FRIEND

So how about this one from me ... "I am grateful that I have the time and freedom to try new hobbies and interests. I will join a group and foster these interests and make new friends (I know this has been suggested before, but try meetup.com)"

Start your list. Read it every day.
