I will never forget in business class learning why birds fly in a "V: and why when they do they are so
loud. Well that's because the leader, the bird at the front, is taking the impact of the pressure of the wind making it easier for the birds following to get less of an impact. They are also super loud because they are encouraging the head bird, giving it strengthen to carry on.
In life people are kind of the same way. When we go through a struggle in life or a rough patch we tend to find strengthen in other peoples encouragement. I have been through a lot this past year with my Thyroid Cancer and having a new baby. Now the company I have been working virtually for is sadly closing their doors. WELL, because of the great encouragement I have received I have decided to open a new door. I will be keeping my clients and working for myself independently doing the same thing. Hoping in the near future to expand and focus on more of the things I really enjoy.
I did not plan for this, but in a way I kind of did. I really enjoy working virtually. Have built a great professional relationship with my clients these past 4 years and taught myself a lot. I knew one day I would want to branch off on my own, this soon, no but sometimes in life you need to take an opportunity that is staring you head on.
I would never have been able to come out this past year as strong as I did without the love and support I received by so many people. Unfortunately there were some people close to me that made situations harder or felt having Thyroid Cancer was not a big deal or my treatment but luckily the ones who did help made up for it.
Never ever feed into some one else's negatively. Never think whatever you are dealing with at the moment is not hard or not a big deal. If it bothers you or impacts your health or life it is a big deal. Turn to those who encourage you. Remember like the birds to root for the one taking a big impact in life, they need your encouragement to be strong.
As for my new venture. I will add more details once there are more details. But for now I am going to take everything one day at a time!
