Who has ever not needed one of those?!
A simple invention, costs nothing to make and yet it must have made someone very rich.... hmmm I need to Google the background on this and find out how the stress ball came about (shame on me for not carrying out sufficient research for this post!). I w.ish I could invent something so simple that everybody needs.... like the man who invented the Cats Eyes for the middle of the road, I've always been in awe of him! Anyway, I'm going off on a tangent now and that's not the way I wanted to go with this..
OK, this post isn't about the stress ball per se.
I was thinking about things when I woke up this morning and I have a fair few negative things going on around me at the moment - in fact in every aspect of my life. Family, work and love life. When does that ever happen? Usually it's one or the other.
Other than the Family issue, none involve life or death situations and can be worked out or worked through whatever the outcome, however the family element is less easy to move past. All we can do is keep our fingers crossed and stick together.This is not a self-indulgent pity post by the way..... LOL - funnily enough I don't feel full of self-pity or that I can't cope. In fact, I seem to be handling it all very well, when normally some cracks might start to show in my everyday life.

Back to my thoughts this morning...
I think, no I'm sure, that the reason I'm handling things as well as I am is because I have this huge squeezey ball that's keeping me calm. Yes you know where I'm going with this now don't you...?
WA is my huge squeezey ball - not just mine, every single one of us on here has access to it. There have been changes in me since I found WA and found this World which lifts me up and separates me from my everyday life. 
I'm not saying that it's my retreat as that wouldn't be healthy - but it has a way of making everything feel alright. It is calming and allows perspective - just as a squeezey ball does - that's it's sole purpose, to remove the stress and allow you to think rationally.
I've tried to explain it to myself but `I can't - I just love and appreciate it and embrace its comfort.
We are all so lucky to be here in WA - there's a reason we are all here and that reason is different for each one of us, yet it brings us together as one - to work together and share our joys and frustrations. Yes, we are the WAmily!
The smell of success is all around us, those of us not achieving it in monetary value yet are still achieving it in our minds, every post that we publish to our site gives another little warm feeling of success - we are doing it! We are living it! Everytime you click on PUBLISH you are moving that step closer to your own success in your business. Remember, content, content, content!
I cannot believe how well I am handling my life at the moment and yes I get stressed, but then I turn on my laptop or go into my phone and there is my huge squeezey ball ready to calm me down and transfer me away from it all.
Together we will succeed, we are all on the same road, the same journey and we will all help each other get there.
