Thankful for Growth

This week I’m thankful for growth – both personally and professionally. Sometimes we don’t understand the growth. Sometimes we don’t even want the growth – but as with life, when it happens we don’t have any control over it.

 

I’m a glass is half-full type of diva and learning to accept those that don’t have that mindset.

At the beginning of this year I started my Focus on Divatude – it was supposed (ahem!) to be a weekly check-in and then it became a monthly check-in and well…..

I’m learning that I need that accountability to maintain my focus and growth. I’m willing and able to step back and admit that I slacked off. “Life happens” is often my response. I’m learning that response is my cop-out and while life happens it’s my responsibility how I react to the circumstances.

My immediate plan of attack:

• begin reading more – not for fun but books and articles that will help me with the specific growth that I’m working on (business, networking, and budgeting)
• begin doing my Focus on Divatude posts again on a weekly basis (this encompasses goal check-ins and supporting others).
• become more self-disciplined and organized (this is a process but I need to own it and focus on it to improve it)
