Right now I’m concentrating on my project launch on September 1st. I don’t think I’m ready for it but I’m not one to be afraid to put my foot in hot water (or my mouth!). I’ve had this blog for over a year now but slacked off on it, after the initial sizzle wore off, and only recently concentrated on it again. It’s time to get seriously focused if I want to achieve what I intended to in the first place. I have to live up to my name, you know!
What I’m challenging myself for is not going to be an easy feat but when desperation is the motivator, you have to try something challenging to get yourself going. All I can say is, without letting the cat out of the bag, it has something to do with 365 days. A time limit it is!
I must say life is not easy, takes many twists and turns, while it challenges you along the way. If you have failed, you have to try again by pushing yourself to succeed. What other choice do you have, unless you just want to stay stuck in failure mode. The hard truth is that when you are down, no one helps you up. People (especially close to you) tend to demoralize you rather than encourage you. Anyone who has money thinks they are better than those who don’t. Money rules life, not life rules money!
The way I feel today is that when I am sailing high again, I’m not helping anyone (even though is my nature to be helpful). At least anyone that is human, I mean. The reason is every time I’ve helped anyone, for the past while now, it has backfired and I have been punished for it. So no more punishment, time for some overdue rewards and they don’t come from helping those who are ungrateful, unkind and cause you undue stress (health reasons are completely justified!). So I’m going to concentrate on helping abandoned homeless cats. Why? Because they innocently sit on streets or shelters longing for someone, who cares enough, to provide them a loving home. In return, they give unconditional love and are loyal companions who won’t judge or wrong you. We all can learn from them!
My motivation for this is that I have a timid cat who once was lost for a few months. It was a miracle she was even found. I don’t know how she survived on the streets for that long, especially with a severe injury, and how she found her way home, from the other side of town, but she did right before Christmas. She is an inspiration and a loving friend. Anyone who is a true cat lover, understands what I am talking about. Her survival story is something I need to share in a book one day because it can give hope and help for other lost and abandoned cats. I must do this for her as we both deserve it!
Anyway, back to the subject about the launch for my project. It may look to others as being unrealistic, and foolish, as I attempt to embark on this journey to reach a very high goal I have set for myself. All I can say is if you would like to root me on (or donate by paypal to sos @achievergirl.com), I would gladly welcome it.
Please do come back and visit on September 1st for the launch. Ready or not, it’s full steam ahead!
