Knowledge is knowing the next step.
Today I am working on attitude!
Since my business had to close and I had to move to the gold coast, I have had a great deal of time to myself. I had time to get over the grief of letting a part of me go and leaving so many good friends behind again. Luckily I was given the time to move on.
This is something I had to do many times in my life. My husband's career has moved us around so many times that I stopped counting. The biggest lesson I have learnt about attitude is that you should not take what other people do personally. A little bit of a survival skill I suppose.
When you leave a place or a family for what ever reason, things and life do not come to a standstill for them or for you. Everyone has to move on and find the next step.
This was of course all triggered by the word of wisdom on the spark page this morning.
Knowledge is knowing what to do next.
Every time I move from one place to another, God teaches me new skills. Some are for coping and other for living joyfully. Always having the children around me to keep me busy and engaged in the community made it so much easier to cope and move on. The last time we moved, I had one child still in school and thought she would still help me get into things. But she was a teenager at the time and did not want or need me at school so I had to lean to find my own friends.
That is when I started my fitness business and enjoyed every moment of it.
Letting that go, was quite an experience, as my clients were like my friends and family seeing that we don't have any family around Aus.
By being alone, and getting more and more into the internet life style, I am becoming a bit of a loner, but not an "aloner". I feel a lot more positive about life than I ever did before when I had to be alone with the kids etc.
The internet is often portrayed as a menace, but if you keep yourself busy with positive topics, it is a great friend.
So the skill I have learnt this time ( and its a steep learning curve) is to create a community on the internet.
And creating a passion for the ideas people want to communicate to the world.
now I have to get to "doing it" and setting my own ideas out there in a positive light.
I choose to be joyful and even though my weight is not where it is supposed to be and I sometimes don't put the food on my nutrition calendar and my exercises in the exercise thing, I feel positive an I keep going.
