It’s taken me a little while to know that I will be ok. Last week I had to say to a role thank you for having me, I am not coming back. For me that was a big decision to make saying to a company look I am unable to work for you anymore. I know that what happened was to show me that I need to move away, it’s time for me to leave that area of life behind me. For me it’s time to walk away from working in the IT industry. Despite the fact it’s where my training is, I am unable to work there anymore owing to my health. So ultimately that means working in the area I am now health and wellness a area I love and enjoy as it gives me a life.
For me I enjoy swimming 3 days a week, years ago when I first went to the gym I was barely able to move up and down the stairs. Compared to what health I had then to now I am running at well better then what I used to, my health may of been 10% of what it is today then. I was not a well person in those days, I have built up a support network who encourages and believes in me. I have hope and I pleased. Sure I still have to overcome a number of hurdles, however a major portion of them have been overcome. Last week being able to say to an employer I am not accepting this and I am not staying was a big thing for me. It showed that I am not prepared to accept people thinking they can treat me badly. I have grown up with a number of people who have treated me rather poorly, some of them I am surprised I let them get away with such.
That was the old me, sitting back and reflecting thinking hang on what is the major change here. Well for me there have been a few things that have changed for me. Since changing my diet I am not as angry as I used to be, since losing weight I have more self-esteem and confidence, I am happier with myself. Sure there are things that still have to change and they will change as time passes. For me it is time to build my business, it is time for me to build my life and to enjoy a great family.
Ok let’s look at persistence and weight loss or achieving your goals, persistence is about being committed to do something until achieving a result it means doing until. It’s something that is needed if you want to succeed with weight loss or anything in life. When you make a choice and decision, you choose to either go for it or leave such to fall to the side. Anyway for me it’s great to finally have created a life which I love.
