In times of personal confusion and distress I turn to the solace of writing. I must admit that most of my post are as much for myself as they are for others. I too need reminders and enjoy having a record of my thoughts at different times in my life. I have changed a lot from the start of this blog. When I first started I was still in college and didn’t really have a clue of what my life was going to be like. Fast forward a couple of years and I feel I have a course set, however, a lot of things are still unknown.
I honestly thought back two years ago I had found the person that I was suppose to be with, well scratch that with the key word in that phrase being “thought.” It can sting at times when people make choices that don’t include you in them, especially when you really have their best interest at heart, but the world keeps spinning and you never know what’s just on the other side. I feel like I have been telling myself this a lot recently. Sometimes you just have to keep hope. You have to believe that as you stay true to yourself that things will work out.
At this point in my life I feel like I have a clear course of what I want to accomplish professionally. I want to keep working my full-time job gaining experiences and networking, while having a front row seat to the challenges of a small business. I want to take with me the hardships that I have had personally and use that as fuel for what I see as my career, having my own business helping people with their money. It’s my mission to help everyone get more out of the things they have worked so hard for. After all it’s their money and I want them to be able to enjoy it!
Personally I have many unknowns, outside of my circle. I have a great support system in the form of family and amazing friends, however I still haven’t found what I am looking for in someone who could potentially be a companion. Lately I have went out with a couple of girls, each unique and brought many positives things to the table. However, there have been some outside factors that have made things difficult. I am grateful for the opportunities I have had to get to know these girls, each has helped me recognize certain qualities that I would like in a relationship. The danger in not looking lies in the fact that you are not exposed to certain personality traits. I can honestly say that I have found something positive in every girl that I have gone out with.
A big thing I have been trying to focus on is being the type of person that is worthy of the type of girl I want. I think its only fair that I try and be a great catch as well. Personal improvement is not a sprint, rather a marathon. Each day we have the opportunity to improve. I am guilty of not taking advantage of each day to the fullest. I let personal doubt and outside factors trip me up from time to time. I am only human.
As for the unknowns in life, I don’t have an answer as to what is the best way of handling them. Personally I think it is best if we prepare to face adversity with positivity. Take what life gives you with an open mind and try and spin it in a positive light. As we do that then things will turn out. I choose to believe that personally. Don’t take people or abilities for granted, it can all be gone in the blink of an eye. Look around and I know that you can find something that you appreciate, hold on to it. I know that there is someone special waiting for me, its up to me to be prepared for her. You never know what is right around the bin!
