Finally, my big news. I decided to leave my job. It was not an easy decision. The truth of the matter is that it just became too difficult for me physically and emotionally. My health challenges were the motivating factor in this decision. I just can't work a 9-5 job anymore. I can't sit behind a computer all day. It's just too hard.
I will now be freelancing and have been lucky enough to line up some regular work. I am pretty scared about this move because I am giving up the security of a reliable job with a steady paycheck but am gaining the freedom I have so desperately been wanting.
This transition will give me more time to take better care of myself and will also give me more free time to pursue my dreams of creating my own art to share with you. These last couple of weeks have been pretty crazy. It is amazing how the Universe works. I had honestly reached my limit, I didn't know how I was going to keep going the way I was going. This feeling of anguish and desperation lead me to make a phone call that changed everything. The day started out dark and sort of hopeless and by mid-afternoon my entire situation/life had changed. I had a job offer that although scary, presented exactly what I had been wishing for. All I had to do was take the leap and stare fear in the face. I made the decision to follow my heart and take the risk for my highest good. Do you believe in manifesting? I do. This situation is EXACTLY what I have been wishing for.
That said, I have a difficult road ahead of me. I need to have a backup plan in case I lose this freelance work. I would be in serious financial trouble if I did. It is my number one priority to make my clients very happy. I must also try to heal myself... I think I can with the proper nurturing and care. Last but by no means least, this is my opportunity to grow creatively. I have just started with my art and I have BIG plans! But first, for now, I am just going to play.
So, that is my big news. I am now a freelance designer ( well, in two weeks I will be.) I sacrificed security for freedom for the first time in my entire life! One more small sweet step on my journey to finding happiness and my true purpose.
I hope that you join me for the ride!
hugs to you, my friends.
