Focus on the good

As a case worker, wherever the road takes us, we go. People come in with all kinds of needs. Some need a job and/or housing, in addition to getting help for their substance issues or mental illness. Others just need to maintain where they’re at in life. For some clients, picking up their medication every week and taking it every day is as high functioning as they will ever be.

When work gets overwhelming, I take my mind off it by exercising or watching TV at night.


I don’t see many big successes, but I do see a lot of small triumphs. The world is filled with a lot of bad things, but you have to focus on the good ones.
