What are my Biggest Failures?
Blogging two days in a row? Who the heck is this lol Happy Wednesday my crewbies! I hope everyone is having as great of a hump day as I have had so far. Seven miles on the track this morning doing a workout that Matt put together for me was a great way to start the day. Saw my run group, had great weather, and hit some good paces during my 400 and 200 meter sprints so I'm happy.
Today is windy af! I'm working from home today and I'm getting distracted by the trees outside my window that keep bending to the weight of this strong wind. Glad Matt had the trees near the house trimmed so there's no risk of anything crashing on top of the house, talk about distractions lol Mavs and I are hard at work and I'm looking forward to my hibachi leftovers for lunch!
Alright, how about jumping into today's topic while I have time? I don't consider myself to have a lot of failures, truly. A fail, is only a fail if you let it defeat you in my opinion. Life is going to hand you a lot of opportunities to succeed and unless you're perfect, you are indefinitely going to fail at many ventures. I could use the analogy of running (yes I know sorry lol) I fail all the time in this area but I keep trying. I have a 5K time goal that I hope to meet someday and I metaphorically feel like each time I don't meet that goal I fail. But have I? I say not because as far as that goal is concerned, I'm quite determined to one day accomplish it.
Now, what areas have I actually, indefinitely and truly failed at? My damn Etsy shop lol Listen you guys, I LOVE to craft, and I really wanted to turn it into a part-time gig but it just wasn't meant to be. I have a really toxic trait of burning myself out and I think God knew that if I had another outlet to make money, then making as much money as I could would become the "Loose Lord" over my life. Maybe someday the right side-gig will come along that provides work/life balance but crafting just wasn't it. Do you guys remember (if you've been here for the entire time of this blog) when I was copy writing last year? That one was really cool and worked really well into my schedule at the time, but it was feast or famine. I spent a LOT of time working on a portfolio and would either have zero assignments for weeks on end or suddenly get pelted at every angle with opportunities that sometimes felt impossible to keep up with. I'm glad I gave that up only because it just wasn't fitting into my life.
That's all for today folks! Me and Mavs are going to send out a few meeting requests and call it a night before Matt gets home from his OT.
Thanks for stopping by!
