Work, paid work

Went back to work before half term and its like stepping into a paralell universe. The building is the same but so much have changed and the scary thing is I only went on mat leave 9 months ago. Crazy.

I need to work on my own thing. I procrastinate a lot and I am a woman of very many words and not enough action although I mean well. But this situation forces me to change as I feel so uncomfortable.

My move will be gradual but I've already fed and watered my brain for change and movement. I really want to do some work for myself. Watched BET honours last night and one of the honorees said that I must run head first into sucess and not to be afraid of it. I have been afraid of it for so long that it is now beckoning me to take that leap of faith.

As per usual I have had a lot of vocal support from friends. There have been a lot people telling me not to change who I am and all of a sudden telling me about my good points.

I have finally found my place, I'm a good communicator, people confide in me and I'm good at making friends. I'm looking at counselling and I'm going to try broadcasting and a little journalism as well having teaching to fall back on.

I can and I will. The good thing about it is I can take my time and fit it around my kids until the time comes for me to accelerate.

Do you need change but are afraid of it? Condition your mind. Prepare mentally for change don't just say what you are going to do but think it, believe it and take action. What comes naturally to you? How can you make money or derive an income from it? Believe and love yourself then take that big leap of faith....
