The previous post How To Deal With Swings discussed how much focusing on 5 positive things a day could help us change our mood, be more grateful and face our day (and of course poker) with a more positive attitude.
I have just spent 30 really tiring hours, during which I played poker non stop and only slept for 4, and I know I will be lucky if I can sleep for 5 or 6 today. Nevertheless I don’t want to complain and I just want to focus on the good. Looking at the pictures of some beautiful memories or scenarios I have seen helps me detach my mind from poker and prevents me from going to bed dreaming about Aces and Full Houses.
Here are my 5 things for today. What are yours? Share them! Leave a comment!
1. Love – 2. The Mediterranean Sea – 3. Mango Smoothies 4. Bruschetta 5. Tuscan Countryside

Il post precedente How To Deal With Swings parlava di come concentrarsi ogni giorno su 5 cose positive possa contribuire a cambiarci l’umore, ad essere grati di quello che abbiamo e ad affrontare la giornata (e anche il poker) con un’attitudine positiva.
Io ho appena avuto 30 ore incredibilmente stancanti, durante le quali ho giocato a poker non stop e dormito solo per 4, e sarò fortunato se riuscirò a dormire 5 o 6 di quelle successive. Tuttavia non voglio lamentarmi, ma concentrarmi sulle cose allegre. Osservare le foto di qualche bel ricordo o di un paesaggio suggestivo che ho visto mi aiuta a staccare la mente dal poker e a non andare a letto sognando Assi e Full House.
Ecco le mie 5 cose per oggi. Quali sono le tue? Condividile! Lascia un commento!
1. L’Amore – 2. Il Mar Mediterraneo – 3. I Frullati di Mango 4. La Bruschetta 5. La Campagna Toscana

Great, thanks so much for the support and I hope you'll keep on reading!! 🙂
Hello, I think your blog might be having browser compatibility issues.
When I look at your blog site in Firefox, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping.
I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other then that, terrific blog!
Thanks for the feedback!
I’ve learn some good stuff here. Definitely price bookmarking for revisiting.
I wonder how much attempt you set to make such a magnificent
informative site.
I do not know if it’s just me or if perhaps everyone else encountering
issues with your blog. It appears as though some of the written text on your content are running off the screen. Can somebody else please provide
feedback and let me know if this is happening to them
too? This could be a issue with my web browser because I’ve had this happen before.
Appreciate it
Let me know if you’re still having trouble. I’ll check with my tech on this as well. Never had anyone else complain FWIW.
Alec
Hi to all, the contents existing at this web page are genuinely amazing for people knowledge,
well, keep up the nice work fellows.
Thanks Virginia!
First off I want to say terrific blog! I had a quick question that I’d like to ask if you don’t mind.
I was interested to find out how you center yourself and clear your mind before writing.
I’ve had a difficult time clearing my mind in getting my ideas
out there. I truly do enjoy writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are lost just
trying to figure out how to begin. Any suggestions or hints?
Thank you!
Start by journaling and just do a ‘stream of consciousness’ where you write whatever comes to mind. Describe your computer in detail. It doesn’t matter. Just like getting the body warm before a workout helps, I find that the same process helps my writing. Good luck!
My brother recommended I might like this website.
He was once entirely right. This submit actually
made my day. You cann’t imagine simply how a lot time I had
spent for this info! Thank you!
Thanks for the kind words. Glad you enjoyed it! Thank your brother for me as well.
Asking questions are truly pleasant thing if you are not understanding something fully, however this article gives good understanding yet.
Thanks for finally writing about >Alec Torelli |
