When there are so many problems, the clutter makes it hard to handle any of them. Just hit each one at a time and move on to the next.
It may help if I tell you about my little shit storm I've been living in for the past months...
I was fired from my job, right after I wrecked my truck. Just before this, my dog I raised from a pup was hit by a car.
My girl of 5 years then left because we couldn't do all the things we used to and because of my ever growing state of depression.
I then had to move back in with my parents after being on my own for 8 years. I got a enw job for less than half the pay, so bills are piling up.
I got my vehicle back after 6 months and have begun to put my money and ex-girl troubles into perspective. So, what happens then...
Last friday night I fell asleep at the wheel running off the road and flipping my truck over many times totaling it completely. I called my insurance co only to fond out I am not covered for this. BEAUTIFUL.
I made it out with two black eyes and a nasty lump on my head but no broken bones. But now I have a flattened truck that I still owe on.
It doesn't stop there, no.
I checked my bank statement to see why I have less than I should and found that my ex never closed out the cable tv and internet bill so I have been paying for her and some fucking dudes cable for two months!
I can't get a hold of my ex because her phone is disconnected. I need her to take care of our dogs while I have no veihicle.
Today I get to see my truck and slavage what I can.
Walking away from this wreck has opened my eyes and I am happy to be living and breathing and to hav full use of my limbs.
Somethings are worth worrying about, but most aren't worth tearing yourself up over.
It's nice to get all of this out. I have not wanted to start telling people about all this, not to be the hardluck downer, but in this context, I think it appropriate.
I hope this gives you some perspective on your worries and just know that things may not be easy, but you can handle them.
It's is only when you loose that you truley gain.

Think about people who have real serious problems and realize that none of this is really that big of a deal...
people are dying, diseased, completely unemployed, losing loved ones etc...
these are small issues & will pass.

if this makes things easier for you, tomorrow i need to visit a client who paid me already for the gig and tomorrow i have to ask (if not beg) them to pay 60% AGAIN, because part of the money to finish the project was spent on a very sudden and very-urgent tax-bill i got.. and i don't have it now.
i feel really nervous and i expect to have a real shitty day tomorrow. :((
but then, like loudubs said, i don't really care that much in the end, i can make a deal, do extra work for it and i still expect to live piss-poor for the next few months... but (as i told before) i am most happy with my private life at the moment, so if you asked me (in person, not bizniz-wise) how i feel.. i'd tell you i feel real well and confident.
and that is what keeps me going. :D

well. seems my problems are shit in comparision to what they could be. i guess i'm not the only one in the boat.
best wishes to us all and i'm damn glad i found this place long ago to rant and rave about little shit to help me get through the day.
thanks for the words of encouragement on the show. i'd post my progress photos but ya know... i'm half nekkid and posting a series of photos like that to photoshop pros is a disaster waiting to happen.

Kuz - relax. I think he's just saying he's not oiled up and wearing a speedo during competition.
As for the rest of time, that oiled and speedo-d is his prefered attire.
