Ever wanted to do something different, but found yourself hesitating because of the unfamiliar? Getting out of our comfort zone can be scary and often confusing. I know, because I was forced to ‘do without’ after the hurricane!

After losing my job (of many years), I discovered that working for temp agencies wasn’t paying the bills. I collected Unemployment benefits, and job-searched. But opportunities are rare for an over-60 grandmother, whose entire career had been?” data-entry & customer-service. My knees ached, my feet hurt, my back ached, and I never had enough money left for steak! I wore the same clothes day after day, because my wardrobe was just that limited.

This was my reality-check!

After a lot of soul-searching, I decided to start looking within. “Was I it possible that I was doing something wrong?”

Sometimes, when life deals us ‘rough time’, we have to the best of it, and decide keep going. What I realized was that my trend of thought was actually holding me back.

You see, I decided that I wasn’t good enough, or that I’d be overwhelmed before the task even began!

I had to admit my weakness was a

Lack of confidence!

Sounds simplistic, but actually, it was frightening. I was hungry enough, alone enough, ‘without-something-to-do-today’ enough, to sit still for hours! And think! “What’s really going on?”

Soul-searching hurts, but it’s necessary for my future. It’s staring in the mirror at the one you don’t want to see!

No matter what you’re facing in life, you can boost your courage and your will-power, to envision any goal you choose.
