| Hmm..feels like theese four weeks have gone by quite quick. I've really learned alot about this way of comminicating, and mostly I leaned that alot of my conversations with friends etc is talking about others, and in a negative light. I feel more comfortable now to just say something to somebody directly if it's important. So, to sum things up, I have a long way to go still, but what I have created is what I can best describe as a pause in my tought prossess before talking about somebody, this pause I see as the place where I decide wheater to go forward and express this tought, or to choke it. I learned that most of what I don't express is not that powerfull cause it's not fully blossomed into a tought in my mind. | |

| This week I didn't think too much about it. Ofcourse there was some negative conversations going on around me, but I just didn't contribute. The big takeaway this week is that I instinctively try to see the other perspective when somebody is talking negative about someone else. It's just one of those tru-isms that I've always known, but that are real hard to follow in my daily life. So the leasson is to see the bigger picture, to look for the information I'm not presented. | |

| So what I learned this week is that if I don't engage in this kind of talk, I have better connections to others around me. They don't really want to have this type of conversation either, but it seems like an easy way to connect. Allthough I never started this type of conversation, I didn't change the subject either when someone did. I feel that this week I could have been much more alert and that I didn't do such a good job in changing the subject or excusing myself. I am really motivated to excel this task for the next week, and I'm fuckin pissed to pay the five dollars! | |

| It's going okay. The positive part is that I'm always aware that I am not gonna engage. I see that the problem is not so much me starting this negative talk, but that I empatice when others do. I am gonna give myself a pass this first week, although I could have been better at cutting trough and not continue the conversation. Lesson learned, and something to think about during the next week. | |
