Stress!

I'm usually pretty good at staying calm.  I meditate, focus on the present moment and trust that everything will work out all right.  I understand that worrying doesn't solve anything, so generally, I choose not to do it.  In my last post, I spoke of issues with selling my condo.  I'm sure these issues are no surprise, everyone who is selling property knows that it can't be done without complication.

I consider myself a relatively educated person.  I pay attention to politics, listen to NPR, watch PBS, subscribe to and read Money and Time magazines on a semi-regular basis, and overall, I choose to be aware of the world around me.  Therefore, I was taken by surprise when I realized that I know absolutely about the banking industry.  I'm not going to get into the semantics of the issues and decisions that lay before me; all I will say is that serious decisions need to be made. 

Now: for the good news.  I called myself completing a new draft of my screenplay that is perfect for Agape Productions.  In better news, I got an email from Danny Manus, a script consultant for No Bull Scripts with feedback on how to improve my second draft.  I had to give him a plug because he provided notes for my second draft, without me asking for them and without charging me.  So I'm going to have an even more polished script to send off to Agape Media and ABC Family.

More good news:  The window for NBC's Entertainment Associates Program just opened.  I have been checking voraciously all year.  I almost missed it, the window opened August 2nd and closes on the 20th.  There's tough competition and because of my lack of experience in LA, my odds aren't high.  But the window opens for 18 days every two years, so I'm glad that I got into it while I could.

So I'll just focus on my good news instead my frustrating condo decision bring me down...
