Oh my gosh, how exciting! You’re free!! You can do anything you want.
Yep your post relates to me and before I go on – I am delighted also to see the word lychees – I have neither heard nor used this word for 20 years then suddenly this week I have heard and used it about 3 times from random directions. To me, this is, not a sign, but something to notice.
So yes back to you. How exciting!! When you push the plunger, blow everything you know up and see what happens – or doesn’t happen. I am used to doing such and I respect to anyone who takes the plunge. to feel the fear and do it anyway.
It’s not for everyone and for some it’s completely impossible to contemplate. I too am stuck in a corporate rut – we all are. We didn’t ask to be born to slave away for The Man. to put our hopes and dreams aside in favour of making some fat cat more money. Very few of us do jobs we actually enjoy and that matters to us. I wish I could do what you are doing now – I’ve done it in the past but I jumped back into the same routine
For me – well.. self delusion is the key to happiness. They can tell me I have to work or I won’t eat. They can tell me I have to spend more of my actual waking hours in this chair at this desk than I even spend with the people I love and am working for… but they cant tell me HOW to get to work, what to dream about, what to look at, which route I walk to work, how fast I walk etc. that’s my freedom and in terms of the corporate world it’s all I’ve got
however. hee. I also sit here on the work computer with my CBT study book in hand and what started as researching negative thinking for my assignment has turned in to joining a forum for thinky and feely people. I feel right a home.,
