It's not sunshine and roses every day!
The last few days I've not been able to give WA as much time as I usually do due to dealing with a personal matter that is demanding my attention. Amazingly, although my personal situation is a serious one, I find myself feeling guilty about not having the time to commit to my WA routine.
Funny how your routine can switch in a few months so that when you're unable to include a daily activity, the loss is felt. Of course, I'm driven by the fact that my ranking has improved significantly over the last few weeks, and the last thing I want is for the work that I've put in thus far to come to naught.
Life is like that sometimes. Change is constant and dealing with the spanner that throws your wheel off course, is in itself a lesson in perseverance. Suffice it to say that I will try to keep up as much as I can - although my time commitments will be reduced for the next few weeks because my focus at this time is required elsewhere.
Congrats to my mentor Only1Hugh for making it to Ambassador status. His 4 month journey has been amazing and the pace of his rise to Ambassadorship a true testimony that it can be done with commitment and a plan. So that's my inspiration! Even though the next few weeks will not see the same level of time and commitment spent on my WA journey, it will not be allowed to fall away...even if it's half an hour on my phone every day.
I might just use the Otter voice to text app to keep up. Will see how things pan out. My advice - keep plodding on in spite of the challenges. In this thing called Life, there are no guarantees, but it is what you make it. Cheers!

Life is indeed first, Maria, resolve what must be resolved, from your business online or not to whatever is needed, WA can wait. That work-life-balance is a work in progress but we must strive for it.
All will be fine, let's keep plodding on our paths whatever comes our way 🙏👏
Thank you so much for your words of encouragement. Indeed it is life... And live it we must - challenges and all!
One day at a time Maria. Focus on the good and never let the negative overcome you. Easier said than done sometimes but it's what I do to keep my sanity during difficult periods.
Whatever you're dealing with is only a chapter in the book of your life and you'll be over it - better, wiser and stronger from whatever lesson life has brought your way.
I'm happy you'll still be able to pop in and continue your journey here at WA. If nothing else, it'll be a great distraction.
Best wishes.
Hey thanks so much for your response and for understanding. It's all par for the course of life I guess... And my mantra is "this too shall pass". And it will. Rest assured I'll pop in as much as I can. Cheers!

Maria, best wishes for a swift resolution to whatever your challenges are. It's taken me perseverance and dedication daily, weekly, monthly, to get my first dose of C-19 Moderna vaccine. Finally, scored on Feb 26! It seemed surreal to finally succeed!!!!! Due to recent bad weather in many parts of the USA, our
Supply in AZ was severely impacted. For example, Jan and Feb appointments were filled in 39 minutes!
It's likened to when a radio station announces a contest for the 10th caller, you finally get through;
And you're caller #9. Many of us are in your corner, you will succeed and "Git R Done!".
"Every rose has it's thorn.". May you find only the best rose of the bouquet!
