JennBuck61's Journal, 20 February 2015

Hoping to pick up the LR today. I have so many commitments on the weekend. Started the day right with my LC eats. It's still very cold but the weather outlook is that the cold will ease (-3 instead of -30C) - however, the trade-off is more snow! I need a break from the cold so I will take the snow. Keeping myself mindfully focused. I have to respond to an offer today and I've tried to keep it in the moment since it's a risky endeavour but I love the opportunity to be out of my comfort zone and I think that is what appeals to me (as scary as it is). I have to keep reminding myself that it's critical to keep growing and transforming at every phase of your life. When I hit my 30s it started an entire decade of challenges, mountain top experiences and transformation. It was when I had my two children now 15 and 10. It was when I met and married the love of my life. It was when I found my voice and became comfortable with myself. I experienced deep loss, failures, true love and the most growth of any period in my life. All of this happened outside of my comfort zone and I was so grateful for everything that rocked my world back then. I've had a fairly quiet cycle since then. There has been continual learning and growth, especially as a wife and mother - it's daily. Now, I think I am poised for a career adventure and that's why this job opportunity won't go away. It's scary and exciting at the same time - the critical thing for me is to ensure that the imbalances I've had in the past with my workaholic tendencies are kept in check. My Yogi shared a thought with me this week and I am going to fully embrace it "When you focus on problems, you'll have more problems. When you focus on possibilities, you will have more opportunities". So off I go to create more opportunities today! Have a great weekend all!

My 40's were my time of challenges, I am hoping for some quietness for a while. I find it very true that your mindset can change every challenge to a possibility, and every loss to a new beginning. Good luck in your career choice!
