This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for July 05, 2008:
I am giving myself the freedom to persue my strengths.
When I made the decision to focus upon my writing and create a new website as a information portal to self-help and activism, it seemed like a weight lifted off my shoulders. i am lucky to be in the unique situation, where money does not matter - my husband makes plenty so that I would not have to work outside the home, one day in my life - so I am free to pursue my passion without pressure, with the focus on helping others, and enjoying my actions, at the moment that I am inspired to do so.
For about a year, I thought having my own business would be cool - and it was - but once it took away from my passion, and the mundane part took time away from helping people, which I originally invisioned as being a Life Coach, I found myself less helping, and more marketing.
How am I good to anyone - and to myself - if I am hunting down leads, and arranging newsletters - while the people who could use my help, can not afford to hire a Life Coach in the first place?
Now I learned so much from that year though - how to set up a website in a hurry, how to find information for all kinds of subjects, that allows people to grow, how to become more agressive, when I need to find help for someone, how to ignore other people's comments about not being conventional.
All these things will help me help others, for the only fee that I want to charge - knowing that someones life is better, because I was able to point them into the right direction.
What more can you ask for in a life time?
