I’m not sure if it’s just the accounts I follow but everything I see on the gram is about making money, money mindset, how to increase revenue, how to get paid as an affiliate marketer, how to start a business that yields results same year, where to invest your money, and so on and so forth. I wonder is everyone focused on making money? Or being free? Or are some people content right where they are and not seeking to make more money or grow their retirement? I also wonder if it’s just me based on the algorithms of content that is showcased to me? Is that indeed based on my search history, the reels/posts that I “like” and/or the accounts I follow… My mind has been wondering and racing fast over the past few weeks. And yet, there is something in my soul that is pacing me – steady and slow – and that feels comforting. Comforting like a warm cup of tea with honey on a crisp and cool morning that is dewy and moist from last nights rain storm.

Speaking of last week… whew was it one for my testing. I am often times thinking ‘what can I offer the world through this blog, or any type of post’… or ‘what wisdom can I embark upon speaking (writing)’ and today, I just may not have any. I just have where I’m at. Currently, I’ve been battling migraines. Literally all last week, my migraines were trying to take me out. I had so much in my mind planned to tackle but my body physically would not allow it. I slept a lot. I mean, a lot. When I wasn’t at work or preparing to go to work, I was sleep. My mom award was not shining bright either this past week. I did what I could. Between scheduling appointments for my young one to get a vision appointment, trying to find a location to get her glasses from, and finding time to squeeze on the calendar to get her braces on, I was at my wits end. And on top of that scheduling monstrosity, preparing for interviews and conducting interviews. In case you missed it previously, I am working towards adding a second job to my life. That means time allocation is whipping me in to shape. It takes time to first find ideal jobs, then apply, then get scheduled for interviews, then prepare for the interviews, have the interviews and so forth. And even then, all of that could be a waste if it doesn’t pan out in the ideal fashion. But here we are, 1.5 months in to 2024, working on the goals. I said I was focused on two things and only two things this year. One of those was increasing my income. The second job is a part of that plan. Now, it’s of course more detailed than that because increasing the income is about decreasing debt and investing for the long haul which are paths that take up ample amount of space in my mind on the hour. But one step in front of the next. Slow and steady, remember? So, last week, I completed two interviews while trying to maintain my sanity with my migraines. That’s where I’m currently at. And praying for those who have what feels like debilitating migraines. Ugh.

This week shall be better – I don’t have to wonder about that. 😏 Going to make my plan today and refocus intently. Looking forward to defining and achieving a successful week! Wishing the same for you, my friend. 💜
