Find Your Passion


6 Phases of Being Employed at a Stressful job


Phase 1  
You are listening to jazz -- Your first day at work is great. Your fellow co-workers are wonderful, your office is cute, you love your agents, and your manager is the best!


Phase 2
 
You are listening to pop music --
After a while you are so busy that you are not sure if you're coming or going anymore.

Phase 3

 
You are listening to heavy metal --
This is what you feel like after ONE month.

 Phase 4

 
You are listening to hip hop --
You become bloated due to stress, you're gaining weight due to lack of exercise because you are so tired and have so much work to do and, when you do get home, you feel sluggish and suffer from constipation. Your fellow co-workers are too cheerful for your liking, your family doesn't understand a word you say and the walls of your office are closing in.

Phase 5

 
You are listening to GANGSTA RAP --
After more time passes, your eyes start to twitch and you forget what a 'good hair day' feels like as you just fall out of bed and load up on caffeine.

Phase 6


Y
ou are listening to the voices in your head --
You have locked your office door to keep people out. You wonder WHY you are even here in the first place!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Moral of the story, find something you can be passionate about then love what you do.

Today I Won The Lottery

Today I did win the lottery but not in a material sense. I thought back to my childhood and remembered something my mother always said and lived by "Ask and you will receive".


Well, I did that and I received so much more than I bargained for.

You see, I have a home based business and as many people know these can be challenging and there are so many opportunities to become despondent. Sometimes progress seems like an uphill battle and sometimes you really do start to doubt your own abilities. 48 hrs ago I was here, in this mindset, this killer mindset, the one that can make a person decide it's not for them and so they give up. In my mind I knew this would be the worst thing possible and so I thought "Ask and you will receive".

Mustering up all my courage, and casting aside the negative thoughts trying to tell me that people would not appreciate my request, I took the bull by the horns and voiced my concerns on our community skype group. Wow.... the response was awesome. It was unbelievable. The support, the sharing, the warmth that radiated from the group was mind blowing. It has been a light bulb realisation for me that people really can help each other in a myriad of ways. I was I guess, looking for evidence that my new community was all it said it was and boy I wasn't disappointed.

I've realised I can start again at any given time, I can be a winner at any given moment, any given day or any given week.

And so today I became a winner. I will continue to be a winner each and every single day. I know this feeling comes from within, but I also know that with that feeling I can achieve anything and everything I want in my life.

I'm so grateful for all the relationships in my life, all the connections and all the learnings I'm going through each and every day.

Your decision

"You are the only problem you will ever have and you are the solution. Change is inevitable. Personal growth is always a personal decision." - Bob Proctor

Life is about choice. At any given time we can choose to follow a new path or choose to stay on the old one. Only problem is if you continue to do what you've always done, you will get what you've always got.

Sometimes the choice will be a hard one but anything worth having usually always requires a little work. There is no such thing as an easy ride, no matter how easy it may look from the outside watching someone else achieve. That person will almost always have put in the hard yards first to get where they are today.

The hard yards don't have to be hard though. By aligning yourself with the right people and the right support, you too can achieve any dream you've ever had for yourself. The power of two or more is always greater than the power of one. So align yourself to people who have already achieved what you want to achieve and follow hot on their tails, learning as you go, and you cannot help but succeed.

Success is a decision. It won't just fall in your lap. The day I made a decision to work from home and go after the lifestyle I'd always dreamed of, was an awesome day. A little scary, but also very exciting. Since then I've never looked back. It hasn't been smooth sailing in the beginning, but it gets easier every day. I'm so very grateful to have a found a community of like minded individuals who support me on a daily basis and who have the same aspirations as I do. We help each other in that respect we all succeed. We are all working the "Law of Attraction" and its a great place to be.

More another day. Go forth and prosper.
