qosThere are two sets of numbers that I must check every day if I'm going to be balanced and healthy in the material realm.
One is my weight. I know mileage varies considerably in this area, but for me it is too easy to go into denial about the state of my body if I don't look at that number every day.
The second is my online ledger for my checking account. If I don't make sure every morning that each transaction is also entered into my Palm, where I keep my take-it-with-me register, it's all too easy to skip recording something -- sometimes a big something -- and end up in trouble financially.
I hate looking at those numbers. It's often painful.
But the feeling of relaxation and confidence I have after I look just can't be beat.
