A bit of a personal meander:
Something happened today that helped me realise that I’m on the right path and it’s all down to finding this little notebook that I’d completely forgotten about.
I spent most of today doing admin and I cannot tell you how much I hate doing admin, I’m not a natural admin type of person and I’ve often wondered about those of you who like excel spreadsheets etc 😂
Yet, I filled in the bloody excel spreadsheet and I ticked all the other admin boxes, well done me.
Then I made a momentous decision to begin using the beautiful slightly briefcase-like bag that my husband gifted me many years ago. Full disclosure, I felt that it was too “businessy” for me because I’m a true blue hippy.
However, I opened it up and found this little notebook nestled away in a pocket. There was one entry dated 8/9/2022 and it was a “worry” piece.
My worries that day were about moving into the bigger room at Ashdale, starting my degree (aka being smart enough) and “fear of the unknown “!!!
And yet, I moved, I studied and I no longer fear the unknown (ish) 😂
I always recommend that clients write a worry journal with the only caveat being that they limit it to 15 minutes each day, no longer.
And when you read it back, in my case 4 years later, you’ll be so surprised at how much your life has changed.
And I’m so excited about the next chapter.
Thank you for reading my meandering essay 😜
