I've read that quote about a hundred times. Okay, it was about three, but you know what I mean. And although I know the truth in that statement, the things I have been dealing with seem to prevent me from coming to conclusions or finding the solutions. It's possible that I've stopped trusting in myself.
Wow, that's a sad realization.
Is it possible that my financial and personal situation has left me feeling helpless and out of control? Definitely. When things happen and I can't stop them especially when those things have been caused by other people; it feels like I have no recourse.
So, I have to do what Heather says "think things through logically. Trust in yourself to possess the knowledge you need." I think I don't trust my own knowledge because of a decision I made seven years ago and every decision I've made since then that has contributed to my current situation.It kind of goes along with a comment PJ left for me recently: "ok lady, it's time to pick yourself up and shake it off. seriously,..." So here is me shaking myself off. Or at least trying very hard to. Thanks Heather, PJ, FB, PJ&H, Munch, my sister K and every one of my IRL and blogging friends that refuse to let me mentally drown and give up. I'm taking a step back, assessing the situation and continuing to move forward (Yes, I took a gigantic nervous breath there)... worse case scenario, I can always move in with one of them. ;)
4 folks a chattin':
Sounds good! Thinking through things logically seems to work for me. I'm sure things will get better!
whoo hoo! that's the spirit! i'm happy to know that i didn't offend you. i have faith in you and know that things will start getting better. as the saying goes..."this too shall pass"
have a great day, you deserve it!
Wow, how inspiring. Like you, I've made a really bad financial decision about eight years ago. I've learned my lesson but like everyone says, if I could only turn back the time. But at the same time, I can't wallow myself in that thought over and over. The best thing that I can do is improve my situation by doing what I need to do to reach my financial goals.
Thanks for a wonderful post. :)
I don't really know what it is you're working through but I know you're smart enough and resourceful enough to overcome it. And I'm here for you, even if it's only virtually, drop me an email anytime.
