Introduction Of My Journey
I'm unsure where to start, but I will discuss my journey. I have been here looking for information to become financially happy to provide better for my family. They are my biggest motivation and why my journey will bear success. My father passed away last year, and I suppose I lost it. I lost a lot of time and wanted to improve myself for those around me who depended on me.
"Self Reflection"
What could you have done differently?
Did you accomplish anything?
Did you learn anything?
How do you prevent undesired results from repeating?
I couldn't stop thinking about how much time I missed with my kids this year because I was so depersonalized and frustrated. I felt that no matter what venture, It would eventually fail. I made excuses about why I couldn't or wouldn't do something. I was stuck on many limitations that I used to justify why things did not work out as intended. These limitations, though, were artificially created by nobody other than myself. That is right; your limitations mentally are typically the ones you place on yourself. Nobody is responsible for your IM journey or your journey in life other than you. People who make thousands of dollars could sit here and speak for days on their experiences and offer mentorship, but at the end of the day, it is up to us to walk that journey and grow.
Sadly, I'm so guilty of this; I'm ashamed. I hold 3 degree's in cyber forensics and two certifications, yet I can not find ways to bring extra income into my home. The biggest reason is that I got stuck in some magical fantasy land, thinking there was some "easy way." There is no easy way; I don't care what anyone tells you. Everyone who shares their successful journeys spent a reasonable amount of time experimenting and going through many different obstacles. I started realizing that self-reflection and accepting criticism are a part of our actual growth. Still, if we spend all of our time looking for some magical solution, we never take proper steps in our journey if we stop always to say we can't or to see how far someone ahead of us is.
My journey has been a lot of not walking because I genuinely needed to realize this.
Another reason for what I've learned so far is the next important lesson...............
"Perspective"
I was always looking for that one magic bullet that would make me rich, make things so much easier, and provide better for my family. I was chasing that pot of gold at the end of the
Rainbow, thinking that one day I would find it. I was wrong; the pot of gold was always with me. I was just too focused on looking for something that was not there. Perspective is one of the most critical things we can have in our lives. It helps us see things for what they are, not what we want them to be. It allows us to see the beauty in life when everything around us is dark. It allows us to see the possibility of achieving our dreams when everyone tells us it is impossible. I was always looking at things from a negative perspective. I was always looking at something that I could not do rather than what I could do. I was always looking at something that I did not have rather than what I did have. That is not to say that I did not have anything; I had a lot. I did not see it because I was too busy looking for something I did not have. "Ongoing Conclusion"
I have started so many different areas I just have no real idea what to do. Honestly, I know I will eventually find something and stick with it. I know I'm done buying so many Books, that's for sure. I've just been doing Swagbucks and user testing here and there.
I have learned a lot about myself in the past year, and I have a lot to learn. I have not been successful in my IM journey, but I have not given up. I'm still here, and I'm still trying. I'm still learning, and I'm still growing. I'm not where I want to be, but I'm not where I was. I'm on a journey, and I'm enjoying the ride.
