So, today I actually felt like I accomplished something.  I sent out half of the mailers for our direct mail campaign.  For the record, direct mail…sucks.  I think I’ve permanently lost feeling on the tips of three fingers because of having to stick 592 stamps on 148 mailers.  Not to mention the 396 total labels.  Yup.  I only have a thin layer of skin left.

Work is going well.  I am learning more everyday about the products that we sell.  Dental implants are a lot more complicated than I ever would have thought.  Yet–they are also logical, with specific patterns, so I’m finding it easy to comprehend.  Now that I am taking the time to learn.  I have listened to our seminars in the morning, and I’ve engaged in conversations about the implants.  Today I actually took the time to study and I understand the implants.  Now I have to learn about the abutments and the miscellaneous other apparatus that go along with the implants.  Exciting stuff, huh?

Today as I was walking, something occurred to me.  It’s something that I have been wrestling for most of my adult life.  It feels weird to say it out loud, but I have a fear.  Of success.  I don’t know the root of this fear.  But it is real.  I think that it is one of those “this requires prayer and fasting” things. 

Today I also learned the value of reading the Word before work.  I took the time to read John 15 and my proverb of the day, and my day was exponentially better.  

So, there you have it.
