My head is in a fuddle right now, from writing a book and getting the publisher deal its been hectic with editing, learning to blog, remembering my twitter password!, organizing Facebook accounts, creating official pages etc. etc.
I was not cut out for this kind of thing and seriously it is taking it’s toll, my hair is un-brushed, I have been in my dressing gown all day, I was so tired when I woke up this morning I barely even had a chance to glance in the mirror before it was time to collect school uniforms and walk out of the door. And of course when my hand touched that handle ready to go my youngest peaked out from her buggie and said in the most beautiful voice ever ‘Mummy… baby pooey.’ and sure enough, she needed changing. Frustrated and tired doesn’t even describe how I feel all the time!
Want to know what else I feel? Absolute pride in myself for accomplishing my dream and fighting through the hard times. I used to say I had writer’s block when I picked up a pen and quickly put the entire project to one side, now I know I just wasn’t strong enough then to knock the wall down that hid the path in front of me. Now it’s down, and I smell roses! (When my daughter isn’t in the room anyway!)
My point here is guys that we all have dreams and although some people will try to put you down and say you are aiming to high you are the only person that can prove them wrong. I am standing tall, proving myself right and everyone that doubted me wrong and when I finally reach my finish line I will dive over it crying tears of joy and screaming ‘oh it was easy really!’.
How about you? how will you make it to you’r finish line? or will you just watch someone else take the self satisfaction from you as you whisper ‘it’s OK because their ankles look fat!’.
GO GET YOUR HAPPY ENDING!!
