> Yes I'm sure my perception and thinking are distorted too. I never really know if it's just my perception or if it really is what I think, sigh. ..does that sound like I lack confidence?
Well, the more I am aware of my thinking and it matches what Dr. Burns says is "distorted thinking", the more I think, hmmm....I may be pretty out of touch with reality here sometimes, particularly when it comes to other people. I tend to be too negative and a bit paranoid, for instance.
> I'll see if I can get that book from the library..doubtful though as they never have any others, but maybe the uni library might. There are so many US books I haven't been able to get over here. I've imported a couple but it gets too exxy to keep doing that.
How's the shipping cost from Amazon? I usually buy used books on there lately, but I don't suppose some of those independent vendors will ship overseas.
> > My job interview, btw, was cancelled, I have to reschedule. But I found out that the guy who's interviewing me is going to be leaving in a couple weeks, so I'm going to apply for his job too as I'm qualified for that too. Either way, I'm hoping I may have a golden opportunity here. So, I'm so glad I've been reading this book and straightening out my negative thinking so I'm not defeated before I start. :)

> That sounds terrific! I once blew a job away(as a youngster) by only applying for the lowest one..and I was told I could have walked in (later) the highest one (only I hadn't applied!..derr)..govt statistics/computer type job and they wouldn't let me do a late application!I had my interview today for the transcriptionist position.
It is kind of strange applying for two jobs at once, and being interviewed for one by the person who is leaving the other. I think it went ok. I didn't feel "bad vibes" anyway. I'll be interviewed by the hospital's chief financial officer for the other. The difference in pay is almost doubled for the department director position. I almost can't bear the excitement of the possibility of making that much money again! Only now I would appreciate it more about a hundredfold. For that matter I will be thrilled with the transcriptionist job too, as it would be enough to pay my bills.
I think I may quit listening to these brainwave CDs, at least until I hear about these jobs because I think they are increasing my anxiety.
