Topsy Turvy.

I kind of had an epiphany last night. It was an unexpected one, from a conversation where I least expected it, but it basically amounts to this: I need to learn how to be happy. But I definitely don’t need to change or fix who I am. Now I know all of you are sitting [...]

I'm messed up! It's amazing!

I woke up this morning absolutely fed up. For the past 3 years, I’ve been reading self help books and books on personal development, and books on abundance and the Law of Attraction and spirituality and god only knows what else. I’ve listened to courses, I’ve read blog posts, I’ve gone to webinars. I’ve done/tried/read/heard [...]

I'm very uncool and that's fine by me

This morning, I have run out of patience with myself. I am tired of hearing myself say I’m stuck. I don’t want to be stuck anymore. I don’t want to talk about being stuck anymore. I just want to be un-stuck. And for everything to be okay again. This whole, “I feel like a frigging [...]

Growing past the scary bits.

I’m in a place right now, where I feel like nothing is going right. I mean, I know there are some things that are going right, but it just doesn’t feel like it. I feel like I’m being blocked left and right. No commissions are coming in, or they fall through, or no one ever [...]
