I. Projecting

Have you ever projected your feelings about one thing onto something else, whether or not they were related? For example, have you ever been frustrated with someone, but instead of dealing with that person directly, you've projected those feelings of frustrations onto someone else, someone who likely didn't deserve it? Come on, I know you have.

I've been having that kind of week. I've been feeling frustrated about a couple of things, and I've dumped my stress about it onto something completely unrelated. Luckily for James, he wasn't the receiver... :) In my case, I dumped my frustrations onto a broken sewer pump (no pun intended) that took days to fix. Thinking about it, though, I wondered if any of you would be willing to share ways in which you deal with the issue at hand and instead of projecting. I'd love to hear them, and with your permission, share them in this newsletter.

Please send your "projection ejectors" to alicia@innercompasscoaching.com.

III. From behind the barn door…

We're off on a few hours to celebrate our first anniversary on a tiny little island in the Carribean... thus the abbreviated newsletter this week. I'll be back next week with tales of fun in the sun, though!

Cheers ~
Alicia
