"passe attencion!' My french teacher Ms.Bat used to push up her glasses and frown whenever I would drift. She spoke in a dry tone and constantly tripped over her trash can.
Alright, So I had a hearty chuckle here remembering my old french teacher but I know that for a fact in life when you pay attention to the little signs that come your way they can have an odd way of bringing back to you key points that seem insignificant at the time.
Whenever I am reading about how folks managed to be successful in their own entrepreneur business I keep coming across one golden value: Pay negative folks no mind
This is about the fifth time this week in reading so, I was finishing a book by Lorraine C Ladish called "Reach! from single mom on welfare to entrepeneur." you can find the book here
she said much of the same thing, from her novel to Andrew Carnegie in "How to win friends and influence people" to the gentleman that studied rich folks for five years and posted a slog about it on yahoo the same rules keeps circulating.
Negativity and cynicism fueled me in middle school, it was the one tiny fire that fueled me through a two year stint of growing, failing, failing a grade and learning some more. I was in a school that was in it's first year running and had a healthy appetite for picking favorites. In essence it scared me for the rest of my life.
So shaking away the very negativity that somehow kept me going has been such a learning process, from the old friends who cling to it to the new friends that invite me in sit me down and want to share the better, finer joyous things.
I cling to old habits sometimes like a teddy even when I know they serve no use any longer and I think that is the main thing. Just because it's the way we used to do things to survive does not necessarily mean they will always carry use, much like those behaviors.
I hear you universe.
Three weeks ago it was "Heavy is the head that wears the crown."
that was odd to decipher that meaning but perhaps these are just lessons I must listen to and apply where they belong.
Today is my first day of my brand new work, I have to be at the bus stop within the next twenty minutes but I couldn't sleep in past 3am and my stomach is doing flip flops.
Off to change the course of my destiny I suppose.
