Yes it’s been a long time. I haven’t been myself lately. Ninety some odd days ago I accepted a job. Looking back I knew it wasn’t the best decision for me. But I wanted to have a job so badly I ignored my instincts.  NEVER again. I spoke about this previously, click here to refresh your memory. I can not stress enough how strongly I feel about following your instincts. They are given to us for a reason.

Today I took back control. So while I am once again unemployed, this time I am happy about it. I had become so unhappy I didn’t feel like myself anymore. Every day when I woke up I immediately started to feel anxious. I hated being at work. I cried at the drop of a hat. To be honest I felt like I was losing it.

One thing that helped to calm me down was a book I had been reading. You may have heard of the movie The Secret. I’ve yet to see it, (it’s on my Netflix list!) but the book is so inspiring. I won’t spoil the surprise but I highly recommend it. Seriously, every home needs one. So I started following some of the techniques I learned in the book. Ya know what? My mood began to change. I noticed that more positive things happened. I began to think clearly and see what I needed to do. So I did. And because I believed it would end in a good way, it did. I am so lucky. I have a wonderful boyfriend and family that love and support me. I caught myself crying in my car today, which lately hasn’t exactly been a rare occurrence. The difference today, I wept tears of joy; Of relief. My mother said the smartest thing today. When I told her I made my decision because I wanted to be happy again she replied with “that’s all that life is about. Living life to be happy and hopefully sharing your happiness with others.” So smart, that lady!!  

So, I hope to be back on here more, spreading a little happiness. Maybe a lot!

Have you seen The Secret? Have your read the book? What changes have you brought to your life because of it?!
