Happy New Month to you all. The second part of the year is officially here! The question in my head is ‘how many of your new year’s resolutions have you come to pass?’ I plead the 5th on this one. 🙂
the only way to do great work is to love what you do. if you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle.
-Steve Jobs
I made a very crazy decision, to let go of the comfortable and the known and stretch my hand to the unknown and very turbulent waters. I am taking a major risk with my life; almost like a gamble and isn’t it scary! It’s like one of the scariest things I have ever had to do.I did not know I had it in me but you will be surprised at just what you are capable of when you think beyond your means and what you know;if you simply open your eyes and allow yourself to look at the horizon.There is so much inside of you,if only you take the time to look and discover!It’s scary and exhilarating at the same time!The thrill of not knowing what tomorrow will be holding in store of me once I move on.It’s insane but I am sure of this gamble and I am sure I wanna take it.
I made the choice to quit my job to go solo!To focus on my passions and interests and this has been after a long time of thinking and thinking of the pros and cons.And well, my job had gotten to a point that it was driving me crazy and so I had to choose my sanity and it is indeed one of the toughest choices I have ever had to make.For me though,it is more relational than anything else.I will totally miss the staff.They are some of the most awesome people I have ever met and I know some of these friendships are forever and so not seeing them daily will create such a huge void and so this month is the last one for me.
I think what it is is that in life, there comes a time when you a girl’s got to do what a girl’s got to do(or a man). It feels like I have been pregnant and now the baby is ready to be born and this is in reference to my purpose and my future.My passions are yelling, wanting to be set free and I feel that if I miss this wave I may not be able to catch it again. 😦 .I am young enough to learn from the mistakes that I am bound to make in my quest to establish myself but not young enough to keep post-poning living the life I was set out to live.So, it is more personal than anything else.It is about me and what I want to do. The excitement of the possibilities is driving me crazy!It overshadows everything else.
Being true to oneself is one of the most important things you can ever do for yourself.Facing your truth. Ultimately,it is your life and you are the one who gets to live it and I get it, no man is an island and you need people around you but never make your life more about others than you.Do not make other people your priority because I can assure you,you are only an option to them and when it comes down to it,they will definitely choose themselves first,when it really matters and no, it does not mean they love you any less than they say they do,nope.It simply is life’s nature and at times you need to do what makes sense to you no matter how difficult it is for both you and those you love. But when those you care about support you in your journey,then you are a blessed one;like I believe I am, having the backing of the people I totally love and respect and would almost take a bullet for.
This July,what is it that you have been waning to do that is important to you but you have been holding back coz of those around you?Is it so loud that you ignoring its voice makes you uncomfortable?It just may be time for you to heed that call and see where that ship will take you too.And those who love you will cheer you on and pick you up when you fall.
If I could do it,believe you me, you too can coz I am a true Gemini, indecisiveness is like a talent. lol
Go live out your dreams,even though you be afraid.Courage is not the absence of fear but doing it even though you are afraid!
