Lately, I've been feeling that every two steps forwards, I have been shoved 4 steps backward. I know that its not entirely true, in fact, it's probably not true at all. It is how I feel though. Battling pregnancy hormones, general anxiety and depression is tough. I have constantly been feeling guilty for things that are totally beyond my control.
Totally beyond my control.
TOTALLY BEYOND MY CONTROL?
There is no such thing. Yes, life is throwing things my direction that are putting a kink in my ideal plan. Yes, I am frustrated and feeling helpless.Yes, I have felt like just giving up several times. Yes, I have just wanted to scream kick and yell every time I hear about someone else doing things I wish I could do, but haven't been able to achieve. I know that I am trying really hard to pull myself up and out of this funk. I also know that success does not happen over night. Determination is what I need to focus this energy on. I need to rely upon my determination to be successful, happy, balanced and achieve my goals.
There are always going to be obstacles. There will always be unexpected bad news. There will always be shit you just don't want to deal with. More importantly though, there will always be your will to remain determined. It may be hard to summon at times, but if you dig deep enough, hold your ground against the negative and be stubborn as hell your determination will find its way back through.
Don't let other people, events, news, self criticism, doubt or any other negativity in your life bury your determination. Take a step back. Dig deep and be as stubborn as a three year old at bed time. You owe it to yourself. The pity party won't take you anywhere. Get your tears out, vent to your partner or friend and then make something of it. Use that angry/sad/negative energy to reignite that flame of determination. Step back, think about what keeps you going. Then do something about it.
In the end that's all it boils down to. Just do something about it. Don't sit idle and hope the universe throws your needs into your lap. It will never happen. Pay positivity, energy and effort into yourself and you will get to where you want to be.
Starting my business is what got me started in the movement away from this funk. Finding my determination daily, and focusing my energies on being successful in this business is what's going to get me to where I am need to be. In the process, I hope you reach out to moms like myself and help them find their determination and achieve their goals. Some day soon, I will be successful all because I was determined.
