For the Record…
Several of my recent posts took a downward, perhaps defeatist attitude of sorts. A number of readers felt the need to email directly to share their insights, experience and concern over me/them. So I just want to make it clear that I’m fine.
Things can get intense, as we all know, and recently has been no exception for me.
As a hardcore Capricorn, I come down uber hard on myself. A lot. That’s just how it is. I’m a perfectionist. And quite an impatient one at that, when it comes to certain things. Mostly with regards to my career as so many around me continue to succeed at any number of things.
I have yet to meet any real substantial success in life and it’s just driving me nuts. This is just one of my challenges in life: to be happy where I’m at.
Anyway, thanks for everyone’s support; it is appreciated.
“I have yet to meet any real substantial success in life…”
Well, I would disagree with this statement. You have an amazing, beautiful girlfriend that loves you dearly. You have both made a baby that will be here soon. You are a very intelligent and spiritually inclined person. You have had lots of interesting life experiences here and abroad. You have created a lot of things, maybe too many to keep focus on bringing any to fruition. I think you made that statement because you have the common misconception that success is only measured in money, job title/status, business, etc. You should consider looking at things from a different point of view. I’m actually doing this right now as I am also a Cap and am hard on myself also. I have realized that I need to quit looking at that which I don’t have and start focusing on what I do have. I know that your situation seems dire right now as you are both unhappy with your current living situation and lacking money. But remember this, you have each other and soon the baby. That is definitely something to be proud of. You both have family and friends that care for you and will certainly help you along the way.
And, I have learned, although it can be a daunting task, that to be happy with where you are at, one must simply be happy with where you are at. There is nothing that can truly make you happy but yourself and your connection to within. I struggle with that daily. I think that once you start to tap into that inner joy and happiness, then good things will come to you faster than you can imagine.
