I love my life. It's a roller-coaster ride full of ups, downs, twists, and turns that, these days, have become very exciting. Do you feel that way? I hope you do. I don't think there's anything I'm doing in my life that I don't want to do (besides the dishes every now and then). Nor, do I have any regrets. I returned home to California a year and a half ago assuming my life would go one way. Turns out God had different plans for me. It ended up going a totally different way that I never saw coming! And, guess what? I am so happy about it! It's amazing how enjoyable life can be, and how content you become when you have a positive mindset.
I've spent the last 11 months working to create a positive mindset. And, let me tell you, it hasn't been easy. It's been a long, and often turbulent journey that I still work at everyday. I was never a negative person, but negativity did have somewhat of a hold on my life for a very long time. Negative thinking was introduced to me at a very young age. Growing up, there were times when challenges would make me think so negatively about things that I'd want to run away from life. I would go through challenges kicking and screaming, doubting my self-worth, comparing myself to others, and wanting what other people had. But, here's what I now know: strength comes in weakness. Adversity doesn't have to be as challenging as we make it out to be.
I'm now in a new chapter in my life. My new goal is to pinpoint my purpose(s). I believe this blog will bring me close. Being an Entrepreneur has brought me much closer. If you can survive the ups, downs, twists, and turns of owning your own business, I believe you can accomplish almost anything.
"What life means to us is determined, not so much by what life brings as by the attitude we bring to life; not so much by what happens to us as by our reaction to what happens."
