This is such a drastic change from my last blog, but today was great! I’m actually about to leave to go out of town for training for work, but I wanted to blog on something a little more positive.
For the first time in a while today I feel like a star! I feel confident beautiful and full of love and laughter!
I was extremely touched tonight at work (by the way I am training to be a keyholder- more stress) anyway, I always have a wonderful attitude at work. I figure- if I got to do it- why not do it GREAT! So that is what I attempt to do.
I am the kind of person who leads! I am NOT a follower, never have been- it must run in the genes. Anyway, I was complemted many times today. First, on my hair. I have a completely new look and somehow it has lifted my spirits a bit higher. It is shorter and blonde, brown, and Red. Strange? I know, but I love it. Then, I was complemeted for my wonderful attitude.
I could never go a single a day without making ONE person smile. I love to bring joy and light into the world- everything is bad enough in people’s lives. I just love to see someone smile, and take satisfaction in the knowing that I was the cause of something so simple.
Someone told me once I should be someone’s boss, well, now I am. I am the boss of the store when the managers are not there. I love it, and before I doubted myself, but come to find out -I’m actually really good at it. Now I’ve decided I shouldn’t just be someones’ boss I should have my own store. Of course this will not happen soon by no means, I still want to become a teacher- my first goal- but then I’m going to run my own business. I know that I would be very successful. FAILURE is a word that doesn’t exist in my mind.
If I do happen to Fail at something you better believe that I went down fighting, and even when I get to the bottom nothing can keep me there long, NOTHING. I will conquer the bad things in life and I will be successful, and most of all I will do it proudly, and courageously- yet humbly.
You see! I told you that it was only a test and it can’t last forever! As far as failure? Someone once asked Thomas Edison why did he didn’t give up after failing to create the light bulb after 2,000 tries. His response? “It’s not 2,000 failures, it’s a 2,000 step process.” History’s biggest successes were also the biggest failures! Keep looking up, you’ll get there! I believe in you! Of course I believe in all my nieces and nephews, and Josh too! Love you, Uncle David.
So, that’s all the female species needs to do — change their hair color? If it was only that easy for us males. I don’t know; maybe I should go with a new look. Some blond streaks or something. Anyway, you gotta keep on keepin’ on.
