Wendy, thank you for mentioning the Expectation Hangover. I purchased it on Kindle and haven't been able to put it down. So many questions I've had now have answers. One major change coming up for me that I've been afraid to make is to leave my current job. It was supposed to be temporary but because it offered me the flexibility I needed to take my now 90 yrs old mom, who has vascular dementia and mobility issues, to her doctor's appointments I stayed.
The environment at work is emotionally and environmentally toxic. I used to justify tolerating it by saying to myself that every job has it challenges and I just have to learn to navigate them. Well this October I'm taking a one month medical leave to have a salivary gland tumor on the right side of my face removed. It's a major surgery and I've been taking serious stock. I've also been reminding myself of all the great tools and truths I've learned here and have successfully applied. Taking stock is one of them. After taking Stock I decided that I will leave my job current job after I recuperate from surgery.
At this time I don't have a well thought out plan of how I'm going to make the transition from employee to entrepreneur once again. What I do know is that the part of me that believes I can do it is not worried about the how. I know I don't have to have everything in place to move forward. I know that each step will be revealed to me as it's needed. Over the yrs I've been practicing The Cure I've been through many challenges. The Cure has helped me successfully navigate each one of them. I'm confident I will do so again. I'm I nervous? Yes, but not so much that it interferes with me taking steps to go forward. Again, thank you Wendy and this community for all you do to help and support everyone of us.
