What would people pay me for?
What people tell me I am great at is creating artwork, party planning, dealing with children, and teaching. All of which I feel I could be paid to do. I am considering a career change. In examining what I like to do and what I am good at, I have narrowed it down to these areas. It took a little help from others and book called “Strength Finder 2.0,” to get in the ball park. Some people are able to get paid for what they love. My father, loved to do Carpentry. He enjoyed it and supported the family doing it for many years. Eventualy, my Mother ignited her passion for Nursing and took it up again, after I graduated from grade school. Determining what you want to do and what you are good at may be difficult for some. What I am sure we are all called to serve at a higher level. Some of us are ment to shake up the establishment and go out on our own. That is when it gets personal. What would they pay me to do? Could I make a living at doing what I love to do? Sometimes, it takes asking tough questions to flush out what we could get paid for. If you don’t ask for what you are worth, you many not get it. If you don’t know what you want to do, try volunteering or taking a class in something that sparks your interest.
What I am grateful for.
Today, I celebrated Thanksgiving with relatives. One said, thank goodness I can get out of bed. An attitude of gratitude is key to success. If you are not grateful for what you have, how can you acquire more?
I am grateful, I was able to get out of bed this morning. Traffic on the way home was not too bad. Thank goodness, we did not have an accident or hit a deer. Another thing that I am grateful for is that I can still drive places. Also, I am grateful to have friends and family to visit. There are those that don’t have family nearby or lost family members. We had plenty of food to celebrate. Some do not have food. I am grateful that I did not give up on writing. Hopefully this will help someone else in some way.
What makes me angry about the world?
There are so many things that make me angry about the world. There are injustices in the world. People act out of fear or ignorance. They don’t have the right information in their lives or a have sense of belonging. These people then join a group, that has militant views. When they come together they act out in violence.
