Happy New Year !
We are exactly one week into the year 2013. That means we have just fifty-one more weeks to go. Around this time is when everyone makes New Year Resolutions and declare what they are going to do in the new year.
I stopped making new year resolutions years ago, after realizing I never kept them and was setting myself up for failure. The defeat I would feel after failing to meet lofty, unrealistic new year goals would deflate me. So I stopped making them.
At the beginning of last year, my goal was to continue doing what I love and love what I do, which is helping people realize they are not alone by sharing victorious testimonies through Breathe Again Magazine & Breathe Again Radio Show . After working full time for the past 21 years I walked away from my corporate career to pursue my dreams in business and ministry. ( No, not my dream in Hollywood, although I do think I can sing )
Leaving a steady stream of income is something I’m still getting used to.Being a salaried employee I was paid if I showed up or not. If I don’t show up as an entrepreneur, I don’t get paid. No paid vacation or paid sick days.
It’s not easy, and far more work than having a 9 to 5, but it is well worth it . To be home when my children get off the bus is priceless.
My baby girl told me she never wants me to go back to work. 🙂
2012 was a year of CHANGE for me.
Over the past 6 months, I learned things about myself that even I ,was not aware of. A mixture of good, bad and some ugliness rose to the surface. A form of ugliness that was deeply buried since my childhood reappeared a few months ago, which caused many tears and flashbacks from a very dark place in my life. I will continue to deal with and heal this wounded area inside of me in the upcoming months.What we don’t deal with will eventually deal with us.
