It’s Not Easy…
It’s hard to put myself first. I have blogs that I started writing in January and completed in that same month and in February and still have not posted them. I’m doing the same thing my child used to do: completing my work but not turning it in. It feels nuts, but that’s what I’m doing. I sit down, prepare my thoughts, then allow those thoughts to flow, and boom! I have a post. Then, editing. I sit in front of my laptop, and I look at those pages and pull them out one by one. Then I proceeded to edit the first one, and then life happened. I am swept away by whatever is going on in my background, and I put what I want to do to the side.
“Life is hard. Life is difficult. Life is going to punch you in the gut. But when you change your attitude, you change your behavior. When your behavior changes, so do your results.”
No, I’m not complaining and whining about being a parent. I know what I signed up for when I decided to have the fun of creating them. What I am talking about is carving out enough time to focus on the work that I need to do. I’m trying to find ways of creating different revenue streams and can’t implement any because I don’t have the time. With inflation and this war, creating a steady stream of additional income is a need and not a want.
None of us know what the next day brings. With so much uncertainty, we don’t know if the next day brings us some relief at the gas pumps or more grief as the prices continue to increase. So as I use reality as my motivating factor, I pray that everyone who reads this can find their footing in this topsy turvy world. Or some rich person wants to get a tax deduction by giving away money to individuals (only in my dreams😊). Anywho, try not to allow reality to get you down. Things will get better in due time. But first, let’s put in this work….
