Yesterday I was prepared to continue on the path of discipline and consistency when life happened. Nothing major – just my schedule thrown off because my network was down, so I wasn’t able to get on here and post as I’d intended. This led to my shuffling my schedule around and though I was somewhat off track, I still managed to do most things on my to do list. Throughout the day I entertained some fleeting thoughts about posting, only to have them vaporized amid other tasks that were more physically imposing.

I choose not to fret over what I didn’t accomplish yesterday cause I can’t alter what did or didn’t happen. I do have today to start anew, make changes and progress from the lessons learned.

I am making a concerted effort to write something for this blog on a daily basis, however long or short. I was thinking about using the prompt to get me started but just decided to flow with my thoughts today. I’m sure I will have the opportunity to use the prompts.

Today I celebrate because I’m in the process of changing some goals and moving forward into a venture that’s been long overdue. I’ve had business in me since I was a kid and I’ve been pretty much a self employed/independent contractor of sorts for most of my adult life. I was able to combine my creativity with business through cosmetology and was successful at it. My dream was to help others to reach their goals and potential as I had done. Cosmetology education was the route that I chose, so I established a school. My school was in operation for seven years and proved to be the most challenging and rewarding at the same time. Unfortunately, I had to close the school because of the ensuing economic downturn.

Thankfully, my coach helped me to see my accomplishment through a different lens. Instead of looking back at what I hadn’t accomplished, she steered my vision toward where I had actually been successful. I now see myself progressing toward my new goals without fear and with confidence to do the seemingly impossible.

This is the next day, the new day!
