It’s easy to think about what you don’t have in your life and make yourself miserable in the process. It’s also just as easy to think about the good things you have and make yourself happy in the process. I prefer the latter. I’m really grateful for my HVAC equipment repair job that I get to do each day and earn money. I’ve done enough of the self loathing to realize that it doesn’t make me happy and I don’t need to be doing it. I prefer to be my own best friend, just like my heating and cooling rep told me she does to be happy. Last night I didn’t sleep so well because my shoulders both hurt from too much volleyball. I just choose to be happy that I’m still playing rather than to fret about being tired. Working for the local HVAC company, as a heating maintenance worker, could be looked at as a drag if you thought about what you didn’t like, but you could ignore those things and think about the good things and it would make coming to work more fun. I would rather have fun in life as an HVAC tech and be more light hearted than to be so heavy and negative all of the time. The heating contractor I work with has a weekly meeting where people come to talk about the good things that have happened to them over the week. The meeting is called The Good Things meeting of friends and HVAC coworkers. They hold the meeting at this local business and the number of people keeps growing over time.
