Sorry for being MIA the past week. There has been changes happening in my day job. I went from working 6 to 8 hour shifts most days to working 24 hour shifts two or three days a week. It took sometime to juggle my blogging schedule with my job.
So let's get right to then shall we?
Speaking of jobs, the sad reality is that people need, or at least think that they need, to work to make money to survive.
The sadder reality is that the vast majority hate their jobs or they would much rather be doing something else.
I often hear people say they can't sleep well the night before their shift; their 12 hour shifts make them sick with anxiety; their boss treats them poorly and they leave work feeling drained; and most of all, they are on the count until their next day off only to repeat the cycle on Monday... or whatever day of the week you go back to work.
What kills me about the situation is that nobody should need to wait for time off work to feel happy or have fun.
But most people do and they don't realize there is something else out there.
My work situation is a little different. I don't hate it. But it is a stressful field which causes me to feel anxiety prior to my shift. Also, I'm away from home for 24, sometimes 48 hours, at a time. I would definitely rather be home with my boyfriend, painting, doing yoga, and blogging.
But I am near the end of my weekend and just up to when I started working on this blog, I felt anxiety. The anxiety was so bad that I just wanted to sit and cry. Is there anything I can do?
Yes. The answer to that question is yes.
Usually when I feel anxiety, I look for distractions. TV, games, company. Anything to distract my mind and keep me feeling numb
But what is that doing for me? Is it serving me in any way?
In the long run, no. t's not.
I believe that anyone and everyone can create a lifestyle for themselves. A lifestyle where they can get paid to do what they love.
Am I doing that now?
Yes!
I'm not at the point where I can quit my job and live off of the income from my blogs. Nope but I am on my way.
So what does that have to do with anxiety?
Instead of letting anxiety consume you, let it fuel you.
The anxiety I felt early fueled me to work on my blog. To work on it harder and to work on it more often.
Not only is it taking anxiety from me in the moment, I am also working on and growing my dream. This reminds me that the current situation is only temporary because I am working on manifesting my dream job.
You should try it too. I promise you will feel amazing.
Let's both to do it together and fly!
