Following My Passion

Following my passion is a challenge. Like many others, I find myself questioning if I am doing the “right” thing. What one may see as a way of living, may not be the same for another. In the last 9 years or so, I have learned about my authentic self. This is a process and I am anything but perfect at it.

Thanks to motivational speakers, mentors and those who are dear to me, I have been able to move in this direction. Fear does get in the way. Fear of approval. Fear of lacking financial security. Fear of hurting someone’s feelings. Fear of not being enough. Fear of failure. Fear of being alone.

Today I choose to walk towards my fear as opposed to running away, most of the time. Remember, progress. If you were asked, are you happy with where you are in your life, how would you answer? Think about all aspects of your life.

My answer to that question…yes. Yes I am happy with the progress in my life. I come a long way and if I can stop comparing myself to others, I will see my accomplishments. Happiness is a choice. I choose to be happy on most days. How? I shall share.

When I am happy, I am feeling content, enthusiastic and good about how my life is going. I reach this place when I accept things being exactly how they are supposed to be in this moment of time. I do my best to live my life, and not judge or try to control how another lives. This is a tough one sometimes. I think I know best. Yea. Right. Okay Susie. Sure. You know what is best for another. Okay…NOT.

When I stay in my own lane, I find less obstacles in my life. Does that make sense? It makes sense in my head. I say that a lot. What a great way to remind myself of all the blessings. Write about them and encourage others to find their own way. Happy Tasking!
