Give Yourself A Hand

There’s an old adage for whom I’m uncertain to give credit but it goes something like this, “I needed a hand, so I decided to give myself a hand.” That’s the sort of attitude and determination entrepreneurs possess. The ability to see what’s needed, then make it happen.

Sad to say, but at this moment in time, I don’t have it anymore. I’ve had it in the past. I know I’m more than capable, but it’s left. It’s become buried and hidden. I’m aware that it is present, somewhere within me, yet I can’t seem to recall how or what to do to make it manifest once more.

It’s an extremely frustrating state to live in. Knowing that you have what’s needed but unable to recall how to do what’s needed. I’ll not focus on the negatives and my deficiencies but rather my positives. What I possess is the ability to find it. I possess the ability to search past writings and experiences. I possess the ability to listen to the same recordings and videos from my past. The ability to listen to the same playlists, the same music. Those things will put me in the same state, my body has not choice but to behave as its been conditioned.

From there, I’ll begin to act my way into the state I need to dwell in. The more I do the things that worked in the past, the more those things will work in the present. The only way to change my future is to change my present actions.

Today, Tuesday, February 1, 2022, I am grateful that:

I’m able to be a caregiver. Veronica is still not feeling well. I’m doing my best to provide for her needs and make sure she is comfortable on her road to recovery. It’s challenging since she doesn’t like to articulate what’s wrong. I’m doing my best and will continue to work on improving.

I’ve been able to make some progress on a work project. It’s not easy, but that’s part of the reason it’s called work. I will continue to get things done and hopefully, the client will be happy with my work.

Leon and I got a chance to communicate via WhatsApp. He’s still in Cebu. He didn’t get a chance to board his flight the other day. He’s more than frustrated and I understand. I’ll do my best to offer any contacts or experience to help with his travel endeavors. Hopefully, he’ll be able to get back to America soon.

How do you recall your greatness?

What can you do today to rekindle the fire that once burned deep within?

List one thing and do that now.

Be Great. Be Grateful!!!
