Slowly but surely...

Yes, I am slowly but surely making this opportunity work for me. Granted, there have been some hard times, and I have had to accept some assistance from a friend that I normally never would have...but I think it will all be worth it in the end.

I am very excited to have the chance to explore this journey! I have been able to find several good jobs in my area of work (writing), although I have discovered something in my personality that makes this type of work a little harder than I expected.

My major issue at this time seems to be a lack of ability to manage my time well. I often feel like I spend all day long sitting in front of my computer, which means that I SHOULD be working and SHOULD be making money, right? Well, that is not really the case a lot of the time. Unfortunately, I seem to spend a lot of time doing things that are NOT things that I am going to get paid for! This is obviously NOT a good use of my time, but I have a very hard time avoiding it.

In a future post, I will address the schedule issue....I need to figure out how to devise a schedule myself, however, before I can advise anyone else! :-)

Thanks for hanging in there with me!

Coming up for air....

Lol...I am attempting to update my blogs, and have saved this one for last. I can't say that I am a successful writer at this point, but I can say that I have managed to avoid having to go back to an office job where I will be miserable.

Unfortunately, I also have to admit that I have not been giving this opportunity everything I have. I am working just barely enough to keep my head afloat at this point, and not much more. But at this point, it is a process that I am trying to get a handle on.

This, I have to say, is currently my main problem. I have a HUGE problem with procrastination, and although I go to bed every night saying that TOMORROW will be different....it hasn't been, yet. But I have hope, and I have faith in myself, which I think might be my biggest asset at this point.

I'll be back soon with more info.
