It has been a few months since my last blog and not much has happened except for the heat rising to the triple digits...or so I thought. In the last three months it felt good to know that things where changing in my life and I got my foot into the door working at a great company but then unexpected things happened recently all at once. All of a sudden I am starting to face what feels like discrimination from my job; my lease is about to expire which means if I stay where I am living now; my rent will go up; and to top it all off, my dog has worms. Not to mention the financial difficulties I am facing because even though I made more than my last job, it is still not enough.
They say that everything happens for a reason. I thought the reason I got my job was to get my foot in the door but I have started realizing that it was a different reason all together I got the job. To help me see that I am meant to make a difference in peoples lives. I have since wanted to go back to school for not only my Bachelors in business administration but also for a social worker degree.
I know I have the knowledge, skills, and experience to work in an office as an administrative assistant. This is what I am truly wanting to do. At the same time I can continue with my schooling so that I may be able to advocate and even be a social worker. Being in an office will give me a since of important because I will not be doing something for someone but will be assisting them by filing, faxing, and what ever else needs to be done. Doing this may also one day help me be able to transition into my own business venture.
Right now, I see that I am settling and that is why I am unhappy. There are many reasons we settle. Sometimes because we are afraid. Other times because we don't have the confidence. And then there is those that we try to please because they don't see your dreams the same way you do and because they settled for unknown reasons, they don't realize the power of passion.
I had two people tell me over the last few months that if you visualize something,, it will come true. One person was my older sister and another person was someone I only know through Twitter and who lives across the seas. These are very wise words and helps me focus on what I need to do. Perhaps if we all visualized our dreams, and not settle for the way things our, we can achieve our dreams and more people will be happy. Until next week...Be safe and Blessed Be.
