When I started this blog months and months ago...I said I would be candid and share my journey getting back up after quite a "fall" in my life. It's my commitment to keep doing that so in that spirit let me say...
I am so very grateful that I survived my post traumatic stress and come out the other side. But I am more than ready to thrive now!
Somehow I must be standing in my own way and I am determined over the next few days to figure it out. Figure out how you leap from survival to thriving.
Drew Barrymore said in the latest issue of Ali magazine ... "If you are going to go through hell I suggest you come back learning something". Well I have been through my own version of hell and I have learned quite a bit. Things I share with you along the way.
Now over the next few days I am going to focus on all the stuff we have talked about and that I do and make it my intent to thrive.
Surviving is exhausting. I work 4 part time jobs...two at not even minimum wage... to try to make ends meet as I work on my business. The ends can see each other but they are not close to meeting yet. That is survival. I am ready to thrive. I am ready to figure it out because I apparently have not yet.
I wrote months ago about how it bugs me when people say they were really down...big debt...things in chaos and now they have a fabulous life but they forget the middle part. How they got from point A to point B. What happened in between. I am commitment to letting you know how that middle part happens...I am certainly not there yet.
As I come closer to figuring it out I will continue to share that with you. If I can help shorten your way back to thriving...it will be my pleasure.
I think anyone who has truly taken this journey welcomes the chance to share the lessons they have learned. That's why I write. Maybe it makes me feel like it was somehow worth it...that if someone else can gain something from what has happened and how I navigated my way through it...that can be a good thing that can come out of my trip through hell.
And maybe that is just one big fat rationalization but it's one I will take.
