What makes me Dee
What makes me Dee……..
Have you ever thought “I wish I knew then what I know now?” Well that is my need for writing this. I want to help others to learn what tools they can use to get through life enjoying every minute and choose the best destiny ever…..
Everyone has good and bad times throughout life and I have always said “That is what has made me who I am today”. I’ve learned from all experiences in my life but I would have liked to have better life skills so I could have learned some of those lessons easier and a lot quicker. One of the biggest problems in my world is that I never really thought good and hard about anything, just went with the flow. When I say went with the flow I mean that I followed what I thought was the natural progression of life. You are born, you get educated, you work, you marry, you purchase a house, you have children. Then what happens…….
It was at the point of having Children when things started to change for me. I stared to crave information and became a sponge for knowledge. I wanted my girls to get the most out of life and not learn every lesson the hard way like I felt I had. Life can be too short and I wanted them to enjoy every minute and live everyday to the fullest and be truly happy. My eldest daughter Breanna had a Brain hemorrhage and a stroke on her 1st birthday and we nearly lost her. We were told she probably would never walk again but she did. Breanna is just so determined to succeed at all that she does. I have always had that drive to succeed also and did very well in all my occupations but it never felt like enough, something was missing. I got to the point when I did start to think long and hard about things and realized I wanted more out of life and I wanted to be truly happy, instead of the whole victim mentality. When I say victim mentality I mean I felt like everything was going wrong and why me….. but then I allowed my self to feel that way. We all have choices and I’ve chosen not feel sorry for all that has gone wrong but to learn from it, deal with it and then let it go. I’ve chosen how I am going to react to things. The way you react to situations, problems or whatever it may be can make all the difference. Don’t allow yourself to be the victim.
I found myself looking for more and needing to feel valued and successful and help others in the process. I was president of the local playgroup in 2006 and in 2008 president of the kindergarten. I began to feel is this as good as it gets? My relationships had been a struggle, finances aren’t great, I feel tired and stressed all the time. That victim mentality again.
In 2008 I was sick of feeling like a victim and began to look for a change and came across an opportunity to improve on my personal development. I said to my self “What have I got to lose?’ Nothing was the answer, if I continue to do what I’m doing now I will always get the same results so I decided to change things, learn new skills and get the results I want. I made a choice NOT to have that victim mentality and to be happy. I’ve started making changes and thinking outside the square and found new skills to help change my results and it’s actually working. I’m glad I made the choice for change. I know I had the ability to do well at whatever I set my mind to as does everyone. What I didn’t realise was that I had the ability to feel abundance in all areas of my life, my relationships, my professional life, my problem solving, my power, health and wellbeing and much more.
Something I learned about myself along this journey was…. I would say I don’t want to go back to the IT Industry as I didn’t want to constantly study and be upgrading skills all the time. Well it was just that I didn’t want to study IT at all, it wasn’t my passion and I kept making excuses for feeling that way. I’m loving Personal Development and learning all that I can. It is truly inspiring. I’m really keen to help people realise their true potential and get all they desire from life.
I have found my passion and purpose and I’m ready to move on with the rest of my life. So my lesson here is simple, look over your life and find those brick walls that stop you and break them down and move on. In tragic times we sometimes seek a change, don’t wait for a tragedy to look at your life, do it now. Don’t allow yourself to have the victim mentality, this will inhibit you moving forward. Think about your reactions to situations so the outcome can be different. I will go into these in more detail in later BLOGS.
THE MIND IS A POWERFUL TOOL, OPEN YOUR MIND TO AN ALTERNITIVE…….
