You've got to take some chances, you've got to be willing to risk losing it all. Sometimes all you can do is close your eyes and leap because it might be worth the fall.I took that leap of faith, but when I hit the ledge, it broke. I gave it all up...a steady job and income... for what I thought was going to be better. In some ways it was better, in others not so much.
But what have I learned from this experience?
I learned what my passion is not. I'm trying to see this as a way out of what I do not enjoy. It's not how I wished for it happen, but I cannot change that. I have to play the cards I've been dealt and do the best I can.
You only ever grow as a person when you are outside your comfort zone.
This is way outside my comfort zone because I like to be in control and things be steady, but I am currently on a rocky and windy road....What God is showing me through all of this is...
Faith and trust in Him for sure!
And I think He is ready for me to stop running from my fears and begin to face them & start fighting for what I really want!
One way that I have to stop running from my fears is... someone asked me if I could train them! :-o I have no clue what I am doing but it's time to learn.
*I have enough $ to purchase the study materials for the certification :-o It's freaking me out a little... okay a lot! The program and bundle that I am buying includes an exam voucher good for one-year... so next year this time I will definitely be certified! How exciting! :D
I am ready to change and turn my life around. I read an article the other that my amazing friend Melanie was interviewed for and it has motivated me to get healthy. Over the next few months I going to be cleaning the entire house... I'm excited to get to the kitchen part of this cleaning adventure... I'm taking out all the bad and replacing with all the good! :) I'm also in the cooking mood and trying to new foods. (Please share any healthy recipes please!)
It's time to be an example and live the lifestyle I am trying to get others to live as well.
A quote I came across this morning, "
Although things are most definitely not as I had planned.... It is going to turn out way better. It's time to get ready because it's coming fast!
So, do I consider this situation in my life a regret, a lesson learned or a hidden opportunity...
-Well it started out as regret. Up until this afternoon I regretted my decision for leaving TMF.
-Then it turned into a lesson learned. The lesson being, don't leave something good, just because you want out for something "better" that you still have an uneasy feeling about... but if I didn't take the new job I would have always wondered what-if...
-And now it has become a hidden opportunity because if I had stayed at TMF, I would have continued to put off getting my certification.
