It’s my birthday month and although the date has already passed I feel as though it is still being celebrated even now! I am grateful to be 40 and things have been surprisingly and fairly smooth.
On my birthday I published my first e-book! I am such an introvert that I just want to hide now. I am not disappointed in my work, I just don’t like the attention but I want others to buy it and I would love to make a cool million by December!
Meeting Mr. Right, the man of my dreams
The one who shows me true love (or at least it seems)
With brown cocoa skin and curly black hair
It’s just the way he looks at me that gentle loving stare
I had the support of many and other than my children, I was inspired most by this guy:
I am always appreciative of his business mind and ideals.
“I just can’t describe it”
Coming out of your comfort zone is never easy. I have worked in the customer relations field for 25 years supporting several different companies and the first call or client is always the most horrifying! Publishing this book was just that but it is done! I still have a long ways to go. I have experienced hiring those that are better than I am in areas to make the transition smoother and was delighted to know some professionals who was eager to work with me.
I made some errors along the way too but failure has a way of teaching lessons and I have learned and am patiently waiting to master all that I am weak at.
Writing introduces one to many challenges that gives way to opportunities that are unknown until faced.
The day I hit the button to release my writing I sang the Cece Peniston song “Finally” because I have always wanted to write, I have always wanted to be a writer. I have started many blogs and never kept up with them. I still am trying to learn my style! I have an idea of what I want to do and how I want to do I just have to let go of the fear because I know someone needs it and others will love it. I have a great relationships with people; strangers come to me and tell me all their business as if it is written on my forehead: “tell me all your business”.
Thus lead me to the book I wrote:
“The Black Woman’s Guide to Minding her Own Business”
I would get so caught up in empathy for others that I would not get my own business taken care of. I lost money and time being a friend and a lover to those that were spiritual vampires and it was not their fault. I have learned to forgive those that know not what they do.
I created a business around my passion, to help others but was not really ready. I needed to discover what I really wanted to do with my business and along the way have found free training some good some bad. I had to make some investments because you really do get what you pay for.
I know from this period forward, the moves I have made will pay off!
“Finally it has happened to me right in front of my face
My feelings can’t describe it”
Finally ….
