I had a pretty good day today. Cailyn and I were up early and having breakfast at the church by 8:30am. It was the children's volunteer training morning. I enjoy volunteering with the 1 year olds very much, and I greatly appreciate the opportunity to help out.
Another thing I did today was create my business card. I was having some difficulty accepting where I am. I have no job and I am not licensed to work on my own. I was feeling pretty down on myself... until I went to a Job Search Strategies Workshop on Friday. One thing the facilitator said completely changed my thinking. It made me feel okay with where I am. Actually, it helped me accept where I am and embrace who I am.
The idea that she presented was "Me Incorporated". This means that I am the CEO of my own business, which is my life. I may not have a job, but I still have a lot of qualifications, experience, skills, and reasons to be proud of where I am. I am my biggest cheerleader. If I don't do it for myself, no one else is going to do it for me. It encouraged me to feel confident about myself as a person, and be to be my own boss. I am the CEO of my own business. I needed to get on my own team instead of being negative by spending too much time thinking about the things I don't have. Right now, part of that business is getting a job and getting my license. It was the boost I so desperately needed.
That boost got me excited about making my business card... here it is!!
I am who I am, exactly where I am ... with or without a job, a partner, a house, a new car, or a slim figure. I am me. I am a daughter of the King and He loves me so much that He sent His only Son to die for me. I have no reason to doubt or fear because God is with me, He loves me, and He wants the best for me.
God + Me. We got this!
