This Week...

This week, I have been working hard at settling into my new place. I just moved less than two weeks ago. And the highlight of my week was receiving my brand-new washer and dryer. My mom came and helped me to receive the delivery and informed me she would be moving closer to my new place in a couple of months. This was music to my ears as I could really use her help with the house and the kids. She loves cooking and that is something I have not been able to do much lately. Moving disrupted my schedule and it has been hard to do much of anything normal, like cooking. Also because of this move, I’m starting to think I really don’t need a television in my room. A bookshelf would probably get more use than a television. Not having a television in my room has also pushed me to read more. This past week, I have been trying to read the assigned book, Daring Greatly by Brene Brown, even if it’s just five minutes a day before bed. It has been hard for me to read for longer than that because I am usually worn out by the end of the day, and I feel that this book deserves a fresh mind to truly understand the author and to absorb the material. I had previously seen the videos because of a different practical skills class from the past. And although I do see the value in the messages and remember those from time to time, the book has been the most valuable this past month. Whenever I do read it, it motivates me so much to be brave in my endeavors that I feel like staying up all night and launching a business. It’s rather hard to stop myself because there are things that I want to do and I know I can do them. With my skills and the motivation obtained from reading the book, it’s hard to remember I can do all things…but just not at the same time. It has been hard to pace myself but while pursuing a degree in STEM, patience and perseverance have been instrumental to staying in school. Have a wonderful week. And, thanks for reading.
