Process Patience

When you look at life, you realize that pretty much everything has a process. To finish school, you have to go through the process of classwork, studying, research, etc. To get married, you have to go through the process of meeting, dating, learning, growing, etc. To get to the next level in your career, you have to go through the process of learning the job, figuring out the most efficient way to achieve a desired result and sometimes even apply for that promotion or seek out a higher position if it's not given or offered automatically (which is most cases, it's not).

So we see that in life, there is a process for everything. But I wonder, have you ever gotten impatient with the process? Flow with me for a minute...you're ready to graduate from school, but you're tired of the classwork, studying, etc. You're ready to get married, but you're tired of the dating scene and think no one is out there, or the ones that you are meeting just ain't the one. You're ready to go to the next level in your career, but giving 150% is getting old and everyone else seems to be moving up around you. Or like me, you are about to become a parent and you're just tired of being pregnant (LOL)...ya know I had to throw that in there!

Even though the things worth having usually require "going through the process" we must excercise patience in our well doing because eventually the process will come to an end and we will have achieved the desired outcome. So don't get weary in doing right and even if you do get tired, keep on pressing toward your goal. In some cases, you can quit and give up on the process, but don't act surprised at the end result. But in most cases, you just have to practice process patience. In the end, you will be glad you did...then it will be time to celebrate your achievement and your ability to persevere, which will give you the will power in your next process.

Practicing Process Patience... Paysoff.

Doing what you love and loving it

I know it's been a while since I blogged, but hey, cut me some slack...I am expecting a baby next month (LOL).

Today I want to blog about doing what you love. How many of us are working other jobs to make ends meet while pursuing our true passions part time, or when we have time? I bet that's more of a majority than a minority. We sit at our desks, do the work that we are paid for (most likely salary paid) and we long for the days when we will be sitting doing something we really do love.

Well, as I continue down this publishing road with no navigational device other than the good Lord ordering my steps, I often ponder when that time will come when I can being doing what I love full time. Now I can sit here and ponder and wonder until time ends, but I realized recently that if I want a change, I am going to have to make that change and do whatever is necessary to get the wheels going. So in essence, you and I need to do what we have to do, in order to get to the point of doing what we love to do, then the final phase is absolutely loving it!

So let's begin together today on July 1st. Get the plan together, work the plan, and let's meet up at that place where we can all say..."I am doing what I love and I am loving it!" See you there soon!
