My Second Blog Post
The List
I was going through this list (garyvee, please don’t hate me) and categorizing the items underneath a table of values that I created just over the summer. I completed the former when I was in a very different stage of my life but even years later after I set and done forgot ‘bout it entirely, it was still utterly in alignment today.
This shows me that I surely have to be on the right path, but how do I bring it altogether? I had parts of an early mornin’ meeting the other day, and the speaker said “it is time to throw balance out the window. It is no longer about ‘balance’ or ‘work-life balance’, it is about ‘Life-work Alignment’”.
There’s that word again - “alignment”. What is alignment? According to Cambridge dictionary, it is ‘when two or more things are positioned in a straight line, parallel to each other’. I take meanin’ of this as your life’s work - your creative work, your money’s work (Praise God today if they are one in the same), your family, your relationships, your activities and hobbies, things you enjoy doing are in synchronicity - they all work complement and develop each other.
There is no room for fear, for doubt, for discouragement. But me? I’m scared witless. I have no idea what I am doing. It’s more days I wake up and dread the fact that I have no work, no place to be, or have a day off, and I am paralyzed without having any idea what or how to do, then when I do. I want to be better. I must be better than this. How can I be better than this?
