Metamorphosis

Welcome!

I started this blog in 2010 as I began the process of figuring out how to have a more passion-filled life, leaving my corporate job in search of something more fulfilling. It felt like a giant push on my life's restart button and I wanted to share my journey. The road on that journey has taken a few unforeseen twists and turns, first colon cancer then recovering from alcoholism. The journey continues, I hope you'll join me from time to time as I share my travels to that passion-filled life that still calls to me.

Been a while ....

Sorry for such a lag in between posts lately - week before last I was at a 3-day seminar and last week I got sick on Tuesday and this thing is still dragging at me.  I haven't been this sick for this long since before I got cancer, and I really do think it's because I've been getting acupuncture so regularly for so long now.  But as of 2 months ago, when my acupuncturist moved out of state, I haven't been getting treatments.  So, instead I got sick.  :-(  Bad trade off in my opinion.

The seminar I went to was really good, and very different.  It was called 12 Months to Six Figures, and showed entrepreneurs & solopreneurs how to not waste time making common mistakes in starting your own business.  It was full of really great information, and not the stuff one might expect.  There were a lot of tools I can use right now in moving my consulting business forward, getting it up and running.   Good stuff.

I must admit I am feeling really overwhelmed with all that I feel I need to do.  I feel this constant pressure to get my business up and running, to make a sustainable income before this time next year.  A lot of that pressure comes from fear - fear of running out of money before I can support myself, having nowhere to turn and finding myself in an uncomfortable place.  And that fear is keeping me from really being present and just enjoying this time, these moments.  Somewhere inside of me I KNOW it's all going to be ok, I have no reason to believe or think otherwise.  I'm almost 52 years old, have survived and thrived through a lot of shit, a LOT of shit - And I've always been ok, sometimes better than ok.  I want to change things, have fun again and not always be so serious-minded, so fearful and pressured.  The only person making me feel that way is me, I'm the only one that can change it.  So I will.

Still feeling under the weather with this sinus infection/virus whatever it is.  Went to Dress for Success this morning, and got through one hour before I broke out in a cold sweat, felt weak & shaky and had to come home.  Oh well, that's still more than I felt like doing yesterday, so it's progress.

Better get back to work!  Best to all of you
