What Sets You In A Tizzy?
We all have some trigger that sets us off. Makes us anxious. Grind our teeth. Hold our breath. Or even make us angry. Mine is a ringing telephone. Yeah, I know. A ringing telephone. It absolutely drives me crazy for the telephone to ring! My cell phone even has a polite little "Ding" instead of telephone ring. But I still know that means someone has called. And it's going to get me off kilter. I'll be taken away from whatever I am working on at the moment, whether that is a client, or a writing job, or research I'm deep in, I've got to stop what I am doing and answer the phone. Why? Well, there's six adult children who ALL live away; a Dad who is 81 years old and might be sick; or this; or that. So, for a brief moment, my heart races and I hold my breath, and my blood pressure begins to rise. So what's sets you in a tizzy? And what can you do about it? Well, I can't get away from my cell phone. I have clients who call me, even after hours...
